- Strong character development? It's complicated
- Loveable characters? No
- Diverse cast of characters? Yes
- Flaws of characters a main focus? Yes
3.0
Didn't connect with the main characters, and found it difficult to truly like them or believe their relationships and interactions, which made it difficult to rate this higher. However, the side characters are portrayed better, and some excellent South Asian representation here. Very much appreciated the exploration of highlighting views towards homosexuality within the South Asian community, but the ending felt too filmy and inconclusive.
Graphic: Mental illness and Homophobia
Moderate: Abortion, Physical abuse, Domestic abuse, and Emotional abuse
