- Synopsis
- Delving into Indian society of the thirties, Water is a remarkably inspirational film about Chuyia (Sarala), a girl who struggles against the powerful religious customs that turn her into a prisoner without a future. Her refusal to bend to her fate elevates Water from a harsh tale of deprivation into one of hope and the possibility of transcendence.
