Why there’s no score yet. A Filmi Score is the mean of our 0–100 readings and we don’t show one built on fewer than three. This film has 1 review on file — each row above shows the critic’s own rating where one exists. The score appears the Friday after enough reviews land.

Synopsis

The movie chronicles the life of Khadeeja, a married muslim woman confined within the four walls of the household, forced to conceal her desires in the name of religious and societal norms. When fate brings her to an abandoned life, she chooses a different way of financially and sexually liberating herself- to be a sex worker; soon to realize that her soul is still dissatisfied. Finding a new way of hope, she decides to give back to the forces that pushed her to live an orphaned life of humiliation and misery.
