Sister Midnight: Plot & Cast
Helmed by Karan Kandhari in his feature directorial debut, Sister Midnight narrates the story of a newly married woman named Uma (played by Radhika Apte), who arrives in a small one-room home in Mumbai with her timid and polite husband Gopal (played by Ashok Pathak of Panchayat fame).
She resents doing regular household chores and other domestic duties and struggles to cope with the Mumbai heat and her nosy neighbors. Eventually, the frustrated and antisocial woman transforms into a disturbing and ruthless figure as she tries to break free and realizes the truth about her feral, instinctive desires. The film also features Chhaya Kadam (Laapataa Ladies) and Smita Tambe (Joram) in supporting roles.
