Synopsis

After getting married to a stranger, a newlywed woman feels uncomfortable in her new home. Instead of seeking comfort with her husband, she is attracted to her sister-in-law.

Director's Statement

Nepal is a male-dominated society. Especially in rural areas, when women got married, they suppress their inner feelings as they are taught to sacrifice their lives for some stranger in someone else's house. I've seen these women, their pain, their unfulfilled desires, and all their life. They live in the Dilemma and illusion for what they call happiness over their kids, husband, and house. This kind of painful journey always pushes me to create and tell a story through their painful eyes in a cinematic way.
