The loving care put into this hard fought for-film
is apparent with the detail of color, texture and framing. It is presented like
a gift. Another gift is Seema Biswas, who plays Shakuntula. I was mesmerized by
her as she quietly presented her story.
Through the film, writer and director,
Deepa Mehta, asks, “What is the role of faith in our lives?” These are some of
the faces of faith that I identified with:
Repose
Revolt
Resign
Rejoice
Realize
Resolve
This is hands-down my favorite movie! Mesmerizingly beautiful, deeply painful and ultimately redemptive. I really can't express how much I love this movie!
