The film takes us into an unfortunate but all-too-familiar reality of a woman’s life. During a bus ride, a mundane afternoon turns deeply disturbing for an unsuspecting woman who is sexually harassed on a bus. The perpetrator soon moves on to his next victim, and as the narrative follows him, a much darker reality appears to be imminent.
Though there is a limitation of resources, the screenplay construction and the performances ensure that it does not hinder the storytelling, and the viewer is fully involved in the narrative. The progression of events might be disturbing, but the audience is unable to look away as each development is controlled and efficient.
At the film’s conclusion, consistent with its tonality, a dark event awaits, but one that turns all expectations the viewer might have had on their head.
