Plot
Middle-aged Muslim Bangladeshi women struggling for their freedom as they leave the familiarity of their Bangladeshi community and set out on a voyage of discovery.
Sinekatalog’s take
A warm, small-scale drama about older women stepping outside the boundaries of their community and discovering what they want for themselves. Its appeal lies in everyday courage and a gentle, observant tone, though it asks for patience rather than plot twists.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
