Beautiful Story about Grief and the Aftermath of a Tsunami Survivor.

At the surface this seems like a very simple film. However, don't let it's simplicity fool you. After seeing this a second time, there are many different messages that Rohan, the director skillfully planned throughout this movie.

I don't want to spoil the movie by discussing some of these details, but this movie can very easily be of interest for study by artists and academics. For example, what is the significance of snow? How is the snow globe used as a symbol? What powers does Parvati have? Just a few questions to wet your appetite. This movie was shot in a documentary fashion which gives you the feeling that you were watching people in real life.

The Lead actress Kalista Zackhariyas did a fantastic job in a very difficult role. The cast members and supporting roles were also very convincing.
