PARCHED centers on four ordinary women living in a rural Indian village. Thirty-something Rani is a widow consumed with the task of marrying off her mean-spirited son. His teenage bride, Janaki, must deal with senseless shame when she arrives for the wedding day with her hair cropped short. Meanwhile, Rani's best friend Lajjo contends with her abusive husband, and a third friend, Bijili, is demonized for being an exotic dancer and prostitute. As each woman struggles with mistreatment and misogyny, they also find surprising, moving ways to take control of their own lives. With vivid, lived-in performances and a script that never simplifies what is a complex reality for many Indian women, PARCHED is an important film. It spotlights a harsh patriarchal culture and the women and girls who remain steadfast within it. (Cinemax)

angielski I appreciate that it's a film without frills, meaning nothing excessive, where even the unpleasant aspects are portrayed in a way that has the right impact. Yet it still retains that uniquely Indian vibrancy and musicality, just as colorful. The fates of these three women are interesting and intriguing enough for the viewer to give them a chance. ()
