— BFI (@BFI)“Mumbai-set twisted love story - A fantastical punk comedy, a feminist revenge film, and a revamped vampire movie rolled into one. An original, funny and macabre tale centred on a rebellious, misanthropic character. We follow the trials and tribulations of Uma — a young, newly married woman — who discovers the realities of married life in a Bombay slum, and whose thirst for vengeance will not be abated,” reads the official synopsis of the film by British Council.
