- Who'll love it
- Made for people who like stories about real, flawed people. One to watch when you can give it your full attention.
- The mood
- Thoughtful and character-driven.
- The pace
- Quiet, then quietly devastating, at 2 hr.
- What might put you off
- It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
- Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.
Noorjahan and Sabna get married into the same family. While Sabna brings good dowry with her, poor Noorjahan is treated like a servant by her mother-in-law.
