Agua (2005)
La historia transcurre en 1938, en la India colonial, en pleno movimiento de emancipación liderado por Mahatma Gandhi. Se celebra una boda que bien podría ser un entierro: casan a Chuyia (Sarala), una niña de 8 años, con un moribundo que fallece esa misma noche. Se quema su cuerpo en la orilla de un río sagrado y Chuyia se prepara para el destino que han escogido para ella. Se le afeita la cabeza e ingresa en un ashram para viudas donde deberá pasar el resto de su vida, convertida en un altar viviente consagrado a la memoria del fallecido. Última película de la famosa trilogía de Mehta, compuesta por "Fuego" (1996) y "Tierra" (1998). (FILMAFFINITY)
