That Girl In Yellow Boots Movie Review
That Girl In Yellow Boots (Hindi)
Release Date:
Synopsis:That Girl in Yellow Boots is a thriller tracing Ruth's (Kalki Koechlin) search for her father - a man she hardly knew but cannot forget. Desperation drives her to work without a permit, at a massage parlour. Torn between several schisms, Mumbai becomes the alien but yet strangely familiar backdrop for Ruth's quest. She struggles to find her independence and space even as she is sucked deeper into the labyrinthine politics of the city's underbelly. A city that feeds on her misery, a love that eludes her and above all, a devastating truth that she must encounter. And everyone wants a piece of her
The oppression by men may well be the point of the story, it becomes difficult as the film progresses to remain invested in Ruth’s journey
