Water

Only a few movies have captivated me the way "Water" did, the way the movie developed and the characters themselves made you feel like you were part of the history too. A lot of people tried to stop the director from showing this movie and that makes you wonder why would they want to do that, the way they live in that house it's just sad and inhumane. The director did a great job on capturing the innocence of Chuyia, the small child that at very young age was a left as a widow in a kind of a retirament home, she is very curious and doesn't want to live restricted at such a young age. Another character that was important on this movie was Kalyani that was forced to do thing she never wanted to do and this that made her feel in a way that a woman should never feel like, this was just to save the women from starvation, or at least that what she was told. Shakuntala was the one that at the end did something that could have gotten in trouble, I won't say what it was but its the most important scene in the movie. She is in a lot of confusion with herself without knowing what to do or what to think, when she met Chuyia she discovered that she still had life left in her and that she was wasting it at the house she lives at, her religious prevents her from living the life she wants to live and when she sees that Kalyani has a chance to live a better life she decides to help her.
