In a patriarchal society, three women- Teja, Santo, and Tamanna rebel against cultural barriers and solve their personal conflicts in the pursuit of freedom.

Short Film of the Day October 25, 2021

"Authentic, unique and extremely entertaining - the latest offering by filmmaker Devashish Makhija is surely all of this, and much more. The narrative takes us into the friendship of three women and portrays the myriad ways in which it gets tied with sexuality, loyalty, looking out for one another and lastly, but also quite importantly - the big O of a woman's life."

Director's Note

The outlandish, freewheeling script was improvised over many weeks of rehearsals with the film’s actors (all hailing from India’s National School of Drama), drawing from their personal challenges of growing up as women in patriarchal, small-town-India.
