BUDH, is a women centric Short Film (Based on Indian Roots) . It’s a Story of three women from different parts of India in different age group. Its about 19 Year old Catholic girl Yvonne from a metropolitan city, 32 year old Zainab a Muslim house wife from Small city and Laxmi a Hindu Widow from a Northern village of India. These women have a similar struggle in their daily life and that is mental and physical abuse. Their intensity and situation varies but the consistency is the same.
Yvonne is going through a break up with her boyfriend who cheats on her and gets abusive when he finds out she has moved on. Zainab is been tortured and nagged for two years in her marriage by her husband who pushes her to work and when she starts working he finds it weird. Who abuses her physically and verbally. Whereas Laxmi is going through a scariest life where her enemy is none other than another woman that is her mother in law. Laxmi is been forced to sleep with her brother in law as her husband has died in a road accident and she is expected to deliver a baby boy. Her brother in law is married but his wife cant conceive so he is forced to sleep with Laxmi who in turn delivers a baby girl to their disappointment. Its when all these women get inspired and realize that life is all about facing the fact and standing up for themselves. It is when they come to a point where they notice the whole world is going to keep them trapped until they stand up.
That is the story called BUDH.
