Featured review
Matrubhoomi: A Nation Without Women
I saw this movie 3 years ago on Motovun film festival in Croatia. This movie is cut in my memory and believe me you won't forget this movie this easy.
This movie was competition Amnesty International movie award for movies which theme was human rights and encourage protection of human rights.
According to recent UNESCO report, in population of India in some 50 million women short,due to gender discrimination. The film is set in future, village of Matrubhoomi, where due to rampant female infanticide( killing of all female babies), women are practically extinct.
Story is about a father and his five sons are frustrated because they are not able to find a bride.When A family priest finds a beautiful girl in faraway village.Her father is happy to sell her.She is taken to Matrubi,where she is married to the five brothers,all five of whom,including father, exercise their conjugal rights in turn.
Movie is one of the saddest movie I ever saw.It's so brutal,so real and very shocking.I highly recommend this movie.
