In India in the 1930s, women did not have human rights and freedoms, they only existed as subordinates of men. The 8-year-old girl Chu Ya became a widow early. She was forced to shave her hair and spend the rest of her long life in a courtyard specially prepared for widows. In this yard, there are young women who are like fairies in the sky, there are also withered old people who are half-buried in loess, and there are even unruly women who plan to earn ill-gotten wealth. What will happen to Chu Ya tomorrow? What will be the future of the poor woman?

Water quotes

  • Kalyani: 'Learn to live like the lotus untouched by the filthy water it grows in.' Krishnaji said it in the Geeta

    Narayana: Krishna was a god. Not everyone can live like the lotus flower.

    Kalyani: Yes, they can.

  • Shakuntala: Why are we widows sent here? There must be a reason for it.

    Narayana: One less mouth to feed. Four saris saved, one bed, and a corner is saved in the family home. There is no other reason you are here. Disguised as religion, it's just about money.
