Hi,
My name is Sunalika. Growing up in Jammu, films were what we resorted to for entertainment. I believe films hold the power to bring social change. I also believe there are a lot of unheard stories about women, for women and by women. This is what motivated me to work on my first Short Film, inspired by my domestic help- a beautiful confident woman.
The story throws light on the prevailing classism and patriarchy in the society through the lens of a woman, whose identity is perceived by the service she provides to the privileged. As the protagonist navigates her daily life, we explore how her different identities intersect, leading to a constant state of conflict. Conflict that has been running since ages, being passed on from generation to generation. However, she does not let the conflict define her. What defines her is the courage to fulfill her desires as an individual and find happiness in the little things.
The funds collected through this campaign will be used to bring this project to life. It will be used towards renting equipment, location, hiring crew and cast for shooting and editing the film. I intend to make the film in January, 2023 and hope to reach as many people as possible.
I hope my films can inspire people to break free from their prejudice and not let it affect their perceptions of each other. Your support would not only help me in producing my first short film but it will be the beginning of a female voice that aims to provide solace, courage and an escape to millions of people especially women.
