A film about Indian feminism. The film tells the stories of three women. Rani is a typical Indian woman who does not remarry after her husband's death, takes care of her paralyzed mother-in-law, raises her son, and uses all her savings to marry him. But her heart is longing for a beautiful relationship, but because of the constraints of traditional concepts, she just puts this beautiful wish in her heart. Lego suffered domestic violence and verbal abuse from her husband for a long time because she could not have children. Unlike traditional Indian women, Bijli pursues her own heart and is bold and open. But because her profession is as a prostitute, she was cast aside and abused by the women of the whole village. These three women, with very different personalities, finally got rid of their shackles and embarked on the road to pursuing themselves. This film shows us how difficult life is for women in India. When she was very young, she was sold to her mother-in-law's house as a daughter-in-law, and she was not allowed to read, because women were not good at reading and were controlled. To know chastity, all sexual fantasies are shameful. In the movie, Laggo's face is filled with tears as she is having sex with the man on the mountain, and when the man slowly touches her and kisses her, because she has never been treated with such respect. Women are not people, they are babysitters, reproductive machines. One of the things I love about this movie is that it's not extreme. Although the women in the film have been hurt by men, they still yearn for equal love. This film emphasizes more that women should be respected and have all the same rights as men. It's hard to do, but it's the wish of all women in this world.
