Synopsis:
Desolate after experiencing a traumatic incident, Nia travels to the family's summer retreat amid the snow-covered Himalayas in order to regain her strength. There she finds the company of the caretaker’s mother-in-law, Bhemi, and her grandson, Sunny. Irrespective of their differing ages, social background and their ideas of happiness, a surprisingly strong bond develops between them, which cannot be broken, not even by the arrival of someone who drives Nia straight back into her trauma. This visually mesmerising film offers an authentic and vivid depiction of the process of coping with female pain and demonstrates that a second chance might emerge where we least expect it.
Subhadra 
was born & raised in Himachal Pradesh & currently resides in Mumbai. She has had a long collaboration with Pan Nalin, most notably in co-writing ANGRY INDIAN GODDESSES (2015) which premiered at the Toronto International Film Festival, was Runner Up for the Audience Choice Award & released theatrically in over 60 countries. It won accolades for being ground-breaking in its truthful, non-apologetic depiction of womanhood in contemporary India. Subhadra’s debut feature film as a writer-director; SECOND CHANCE (2024) premiered at the Karlovy Vary International Film Festival in the Proxima Competition. The film garnered rave reviews across the board with The Hollywood Reporter praising the film for ‘effortlessly blending gentle humour with poignant drama’; and Variety declaring her as one of the ‘new female Indian filmmakers at the vanguard of a movement, whose movies share a certain, wise-beyond-their-years poetry.’ The film has travelled to some of the leading festivals in different corners of the world such as Busan International Film Festival, AFI Fest, Sao Paulo International Film Festival, Adelaide Film Festival, International Film Festival of Kerala and continues this journey in 2025. A Berlinale Talent of 2025, when she is not developing films in the mad city of Mumbai, Subhadra regularly takes time out to travel, often escaping deep into the Himalayas, determined to stay in touch with her roots & keep her soul intact.

Central Park

Fall Viewing Attractions

Walking through New York&#39;s Central Park, it seems to fall into the gentle cracks of the steel forest. Morning light penetrates the forest, spreads powder and white brocade on the cherry blossom avenue, the wind is outdated petals fall, and the corners of the skyscraper soften into a background sound in the flower shadow. The city code on the bench is the most moving. The cold chair was stroked by the fingertips, and the short text on the nameplate hid the New Yorker&#39;s temperature: &quot;Give my wife Carol, because she loves Central Park, and I love her&quot; - the separation of life, the young encounter, the mother and son bonding, all condensed into a dew in the wood grain. When high school students spread out books and laughed on the sheep lawn, and when the reciting of Shakespeare&rsquo;s poems drifted from Cherry Hill to the lake, the park became an emotional resonant box, full of human narratives that transcended language. In the afternoon, I closed my eyes in the Ramble Forest area. Bird song and stream sound woven into natural white noise, suddenly understand the deep meaning of Olmsted: this 3.4 million square meters of green lung, originally dedicated to &quot;the handicrafts of tired industrial workers&quot;, so that people who can not travel far can drink nature here. The boat house pier at dusk is the most magical, The wooden paddles smashed the red-stained lake, and the wild ducks swam through the reflection of Manhattan. The hustle and bustle of the city sank to the bottom, leaving only the breathing in the shadow of the oasis of the oars. &quot;When the whispers of the bench fell into the palms with the cherry blossom rain, I knew that the oasis in this concrete wasteland, It was New York&#39;s prose poem to the world. &quot;&nbsp;
