Description
A dramatic tale of family displacement and self-discovery in 1970s India. When Asha's father loses his job and leaves for America, she and her mother are left to navigate the complexities of life with their uncle and grandmother in Calcutta. As tensions build and the three women struggle to find their place, Asha finds solace in a secret friendship with Jay Sen, the boy next door. But when tragedy strikes, Asha must make a painful choice that will change their lives forever. This poignant story explores the challenges faced by women in a culture that restricts their choices, and the power of female relationships and self-determination.
