The heroine, Rani, got married at the age of fourteen or fifteen. The young widow has always been a widow. Her husband liked prostitution and domestic violence during his lifetime. The supporting actress, Rajo, has a husband who drinks too much and enjoys domestic violence, and blames his wife for the cause of infertility. The supporting actress Bikili, a dancer and a prostitute, men look down on her while lusting after her. The female partner San Zhanqi, at the age of 14 or 15, was sold as a commodity to others as a daughter-in-law. She was disliked by her husband, domestic violence and rape, and her husband liked drinking and whoring. The female dragon set N, her husband found a mistress, she was raped by several male relatives of her husband's family, forced to have an abortion, fled back to her parents' home and was forcibly sent back to the devil's lair. Is that what runs through the center of the film? sex?
No, it's just a film about rural India, revolving around Rani's family. But contrary to the usual movies of this type, this one is full of sex and violence, not love. The friendship between only a few women, when there is an extreme lack of love, will be mistaken for love licking each other's wounds to give spiritual and physical comfort.
Compared to the movie Wrestling Dad, this movie is more of a true story. There is no father who is a national champion, no father who thinks that girls should choose their own husbands, no father who has devoted all his energy to raising his daughter, and only a young widowed mother who pulls his son along with his grandmother and serves as a good mother. She would go buy a bride for her son, be powerless to a girl asking for help at a village meeting, turn a deaf ear to the girl's call on her wedding night, keep silent about her best friend's domestic violence... As she said, when my husband is cold to me When my mother-in-law said everything would be alright, when my husband went out to prostitutes, my mother-in-law said everything would be alright, when my husband was killed by alcohol, she cried but still said everything would be alright, but Fifteen years have passed and nothing has gotten better. Everything is the only expectation that "they" can hold in their minds after being constantly oppressed, but no miracle happened.
The only couple who made them better, were hostile to the whole village and had to leave the place in the end. The couple resembles Mr. De and Mr. Sai from the New Culture movement. The final outcome is open-ended. In fact, it has been more ideal since Zhan Qi's remarriage. I can't see the road ahead, I can only draw one by myself.
