Dreamy music weaves throughout this loose film
The first Indian film to win the prestigious Grand Prix at the Cannes Film Festival in 2024.
The film is a joy to watch, based on dark imagery that evokes nostalgic despair
What fascinated me the most was the makers’ attention to detail in creating Bombay, which defies the popular image and instead showcases its saccharine nature.
Three women find it difficult to live their lonely lives in the city as the camera follows them in public and in their private lives
I could relate to the characters, having lived in Bombay for decades, but the film really goes a little crazy towards the end, and you can blame me for that, I lost the thread.

Overall, the impressions are good, thanks to the soundtrack and competent use of text design (especially the red font).
