Joseph Mathew’s film subtly mirrors the turmoil within tradition-bound Indian society as it copes with change and rapid modernization. At the center of the story is Geeta, a young woman who leads a full life and a busy career. She is in the middle of an affair with Jaidev, a struggling writer who is slowly coming to grips with his own life. Their lives take a dramatic turn when they befriend Madan, a young migrant to the city who ekes out a living at various illegal enterprises. Post-film event: Filmmaker Joseph Mathew and journalist Aseem Chhabra will discuss the film. Sponsored by Sarducci’s. Community Partner: Friends of Indian Music and Dance. 110 minutes, in Hindi with subtitles. Film website
