Festival Rating

The ongoing pandemic has taught us neither wealth nor fame can save us from the furies of nature. While we were attentive towards mainstream society, marginalized women had to strive it out alone.

‘Ora’ attempts to explore our age-old societal mindset whereby sex-workers have been outcast from the mainstream in every walks of their lives. The plight they go through all their lives has certainly amplified during this pandemic. With dropping business and no other source of income, they have been lead to the brink of their survival.

A documentation which will stir the conscience and emotionally involve it’s viewers into their lives.

Director's Biography

A Satyajit Ray Film and Television Institute, India alumni, she has worked in Films, Television and the Radio industries during her professional career span of a decade. The documentary film titled ‘ORA: Daughters on rent’ marks her debut as a woman Producer and Director.

Director's Statement

Through this film, we have attempted to draw a parallel between the haves and have-nots in our ‘civil’ society during the pandemic… we have in particular delved into the lives of these trafficked women and the brutal mentality which drives them to the brink of survival.

The satire lies in the fact; are we ‘civil’ enough? That’s the pertinent question.. especially in this eye of the storm, we as a ‘civil’ society have been exposed! The term ‘ORA’ means ‘Them/ Those/ They’ in Bengali. Can we ever be prepared enough to consider them as one of ‘us’?
