Devaki is a biology teacher at the same school attended by her stepdaughter Arya. Although, Devaki is a caring mother, Arya remains distant. One unfortunate night, Arya is brutally attacked. When the justice system fails them, Devaki faces some tough decisions and goes to great lengths to find justice for her daughter.
"This Indian film takes off from a real-life drama: that of rape culture in society. From there, it builds the story of a mother willing to go up against everyone and everything to get her revenge. It's a story of brutality that will shock you, but also one that attempts to construct a neo-noir thriller environment to keep the viewer engaged. It is not one of the most innovative films you'll watch, nor anything of the sort, but it is a beautiful construction from a problem that needs to be discussed. Also noteworthy is the captivating incidental score by A.R. Rahman (Oscar winner for ‘Slumdog Millionaire’) and the beautiful cinematography."
