Shuchi Talati's feature debut, which premiered in the World Dramatic Competition at Sundance, offers a sensitive and distinctive look at the tense dynamic between mothers and daughters. At a strict boarding school in the Himalayas, 16-year-old Mira discovers desire and romance, but her sexual and rebellious awakening is disrupted by a mother who never matured. Before Mira met Sri, love was not on her mind. She focused on her classes and dreamed of perfect grades. Their courtship, a series of affectionate encounters that begin with a night of stargazing, changes her priorities. Now Mira studies Sri's body, fantasizing about their kisses and competing for his attention.
