From the very first scenes, the movie captured our attention with its handheld cinematography that engaged us with the narrative: we were going where the camera was leading us and were present in the rooms with the lead actresses. We experienced their anger, shame, satisfaction, and determination. There were minor scenes we had to skip as we became so enraged, and surely that was the director's goal to show how atrocious some customs are and the dire need to stop them
The film special was special as it discoursed the treatment of women over a period of years, illustrating the progress over time. Dialogues were intentionally designed to attract attention and raise awareness. The use of symbolism was so striking, especially the last scene of every story, though speechless, spoke a thousand words
The acting, the acting, the acting was without question simply perfect!!! It was great seeing Kalieswari Srinivasan (playing Saraswathi) on screen, wish she had more movies...
