SHAPE OF MOMO

SHAPE OF MOMO

TRIBENY RAI

INDIA | SOUTH KOREA / NEPALI / 2025 / 115 mins

A woman quits her job to return to her family plagued by the deaths of male members. Finding the remaining women apathetic, she resolves to empower them towards independence and self-reliance.

ಬಿಷ್ಣು ತನ್ನ ಉದ್ಯೋಗವನ್ನು ತ್ಯಜಿಸಿ, ಪುರುಷ ಸದಸ್ಯರ ಮರಣದಿಂದ ಬಳಲುತ್ತಿರುವ ತನ್ನ ಕುಟುಂಬದ ಬಳಿಗೆ ಮರಳುತ್ತಾಳೆ. ಉಳಿದಿರುವ ಮಹಿಳೆಯರು ನಿರಾಸಕ್ತರಾಗಿರುವುದನ್ನು ಕಂಡು, ಅವರನ್ನು ಸ್ವಾವಲಂಬನೆ ಮತ್ತು ಸ್ವತಂತ್ರತೆಯತ್ತ ಶಕ್ತಿಮಂತಳಾಗಿಸಲು ಅವಳು ದೃಢನಿಶ್ಚಯ ಮಾಡುತ್ತಾಳೆ.
