A Match

Jayant Digambar Somalkar’s feature debut chronicles the journey of a young woman striving for an education and a brighter future in a patriarchal society, where arranged marriage is presented as the only option for self-betterment. Sthal (A Match) is a subtle yet implicitly powerful drama exploring the joys and tribulations of young people’s lives as they try to challenge the status quo.

Winner of the NETPAC award at the Toronto International Film Festival.
