We learn about the mysterious disappearance of Leela, a girl from a small village, through the conversations of two young women who speculate about her fate. Did Leela take her own life or did she manage to escape to the city? The film captures the tension between their yearning for freedom and the fear of the unknown, making it a poignant examination of the struggles of young women in a restrictive environment. Rich in its portrayal of female friendship and the tensions between staying and leaving, the film premiered at the International Film Festival Rotterdam in 2024.
