This feature film debut from India convinces formally through atmospherically rich scenes, whilst through its narrative it raises a strong voice for the recognition of women's dignity and for human progress fighting against the world of prejudice and superstition.
The author has succeeded to question radically the common systems and superficial patterns of life with unconventional and strong metaphor and apocalyptic visions as well as through an internal monologue of true poetic quality. Thus, he suggests first steps to a new vision of man related to Christ.
