Aro Recommended Fire

 

India / Canada 1996, 108 minutes
Dir. Deepa Mehta
In English, Hindi with English subtitles
Rating: [M]
Genres: Foreign Cinema, Drama / Lesbian, Romance

 

Aroview: Blazing melodrama defiantly targets Indian sexual hypocrisy and tradition, not to mention trangressing 'Bollywood' taboo, in portraying two women casualties of unhappy (arranged) marriages that find a connection that goes beyond gossip over morning darjeelings... The radiance of leads Shabana Azmi and Nandita Das compensate the, at times, didactic script. In English.
