Winner of the Cannes Film Festival’s Grand Prix – and voted best film of 2024 by the BFI’s Sight & Sound magazine.
The lives of three women intersect and overlap in a haunting drama that sees the city of Mumbai play a central role from Director-Screenwriter Payal Kapadia.
Prabha, Anu and Parvaty are employees at a hospital in Mumbai. They grapple daily with the opportunities and hardships of existence in the city.
Balancing an immersive style with a touch of the surreal, Payal Kapadia’s drama captures the many shades of working-class life in Mumbai. The result is a profound and deeply humanist meditation on urban migration and dislocation.
