Jane - Short Film

'Jane' was awarded the Honourable Jury Mention at the 11th Dada Saheb Phalke Film Festival '21.

Jane is a story about a young, curious girl from the lower middle-class of Mumbai, who tries a menstrual cup for the first time. Due to lack of awareness and taboo around menstruation topics, she is unable to talk to anyone about her experience and finds herself stuck in a bad situation, that blows up even more in her head.
