The Husbands: – a tale of polyandry and longing in modern India.

Director: Janet Steel

Amidst female infanticide and decreasing girl population in India, the fictional community of Shaktipur returns to ancient systems of matriarchy and polyandry. The story follows Aya, head of this matriarchal village, on the morning of her third wedding — as she makes a discovery that could destroy everything she has built.
