The first Indian film to win the Cannes Grand Prix paints a transcendent picture of love and sisterhood.
A Night of Knowing Nothing director Payal Kapadia’s sublime second feature follows three women navigating life in Mumbai: hard working nurse Prabha, whose husband moved abroad after their arranged marriage, her roommate Anu, involved in a clandestine relationship, and widow Parvati, facing pressure to leave her home. Their stories, challenges and joys intertwine in this soulful, melancholic film, a symphony of the city exploring the unspoken layers of yearning that weave through life in a glittering nocturnal Mumbai.
