Analysis
It is a bit strange to see Anna chose this script for her debut directorial film. However, she has put all the effort into making it engaging and informative. It doesn’t look like a debutant’s movie. Despite the changes in the generation, the women in this era could relate their personal happenings to the script. A few dark comedy portions worked out. Though there are some exaggerations from the real incident, the climax is really thrilling and engaging. The director should be appreciated for carrying out a serious subject without slipping from the genre.
