Plot
The Hungry is a contemporary tableau of vengeance and power, set amidst the opulence of a modern New Delhi wedding. This striking rendition of William Shakespeare's 'Titus Andronicus' explores the toxic intersection of political corruption and corporate greed in India's high society.
The story revolves around Tulsi Joshi, a widowed bride-to-be, who steps into the grandeur of her impending nuptials with a heart ablaze with revenge. Her pursuit of justice for the savage murder of her first-born son is woven into the narrative, presenting a chilling contrast to the ostentatious celebration.
The Hungry paints a macabre fairy tale embedded in the elite circles of North India, where the consuming hunger for power collides with the raw force of maternal love. As it navigates through the intricate labyrinth of patriarchal dominance, it unearths the monstrous violence that lurks beneath the surface of opulence and power.
This film is not just a story, but a haunting exploration of the darkness that dwells within the gilded corridors of power and the desperate lengths to which a mother's love can stretch.
