A rebellious female student and a reticent middle-aged gynecologist strike up an unlikely bond rooted in mutual comfort as they each confront a life-altering incident.
Gauri, a student, is dating a worker at her father’s hawker stall. One day, she discovers she is pregnant—news that worsens the fractured relationship with her father and stepmother. During a visit to the gynaecologist’s clinic, Gauri strikes a chord with her doctor, Radhika, who is struggling to come to terms with a huge loss in her life. Their unlikely bond proves to be a welcome change in both their lives.
While critiquing social inequalities and mental health stigma, Before Life After Death highlights the democracy of dreams and the complex process of grief and healing through the circumstances of its two female leads.
