Indian proverbs and superstitions shape the complex love life of a young British woman.
Overview
A young woman exacts revenge on her boyfriend when she discovers that he has cheated on her, but have events been shaped by other forces?

It’s written and directed by Asif Kapadia, Oscar winning director of Amy (2015).
