Synopsis
Roya performs her last show playing “Nandini” -- the epitome of Bengali womanhood, the central character of Rabindranath Tagore’s play Red Oleanders, the story of a girl who recognizes no social barriers and taboos and who disregards them in her search for happiness. Roya undertakes her own assiduous psychological journey as Nandini. She finds herself under construction, traveling alone to express her own desires, wishes and ambitions.
Director
One of Bangladesh’s handful of female filmmakers, Rubaiyat Hossain is best known for her critically acclaimed debut film, MEHERJAA (2011), which faced political and cultural wrath in Bangladesh for its anti-war narrative and its critique of masculine nationalism from a feminine point of view. She currently lives between Dhaka and New York, attending the Tisch School of Arts at NYU.
