As a part of women's March film screenings Lamakaan is hosting this in a series of films this tonight. The film looks at how a woman's menstrual cycle is altered from being a marker of her fertility to something that renders her untouchable and hence subject to multiple taboos and regulations. As an individual, a woman or young girl is isolated in her struggle to come to terms with the transformations in her body.

This docu is made by 3 film makers SURABHI SARAL, MANAK MATIYANI & ANANDANA KAPUR.
