Synopsis by Jason Buchanan
Two young girls who have fallen in love find their budding romance threatened by the prospect of an arranged marriage in director Ligy J. Pullappally's bold look at lesbianism in the Indian culture. Kieran and Delilah are best friends, but despite their deepening affection for one another tradition still dictates that the young woman of their village must marry the man chosen for them by their parents. Though Kieran does her best to refrain herself from declaring her love for Delilah and acting on her romantic impulses, Delilah's discovery of her best friend's true feelings leads to a forbidden romance that will leave both women forever transformed.
