Marathi Film with English Subtitles

The Indian Express Film Club screening in association with the National Centre for the Performing Arts & Dhun Productions.

Sthal is a poignant tale of a woman struggling to fit the constraints of an ‘ideal bride’. The film is a powerful rebuttal to the patriarchal process of ‘choosing’ brides. It poses a simple yet thought-provoking question, “Is being saleable in the marriage market the only value of a woman?”

Director: Jayant Digambar Somalkar
Producers: Jayant Digambar Somalkar, Shefali Bhushan & Karan Grover

The film screening will be followed by a discussion with Shubhra Gupta, Film Critic, The Indian Express.
