Synopsis: In the patriarchal society of Bangladesh, a girl is raised like a goat to be slaughtered – she is fed, taught to read, made to learn household work and then married off to a suitable groom her family chooses for her. This symbolic film portrays the journey of women who do not fall under this criteria – women who want to be more than a piece of meat, who are considered scandals in our society, and yet how they constantly fight for women’s rights with an irrepressible optimism that society will adapt and grant them equal rights one day.
