Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
Because he works in a different town, police officer Aghore spends much of his time away from his village — and local tongues begin wagging when his wife, Saheli, develops a friendship with the new town doctor in this Indian drama.
Told through the entwined stories of two women and an emerging love triangle, Mahulbanir Sereng succeeds in painting a visceral portrait of a Santhali community. The film stands out for its poignant remarks on the varied layers of discrimination experienced by urban and rural women alike.
