Me and my classmates recently watched the movie Water in English class.
The movie is set in the 1830's in India. It's basically based on a Widow's life after her husbands death because in India you are arranged to marry someone and if he ends up dying you will be sent to live in a house of other Widows, you can't remarry or live anywhere else. They also shave your head so people, especially men know you're a Widow.
Chuyia, an 8 year old recent Widow is forced to live with Widows. Her first day there she doesn't want to listen to anyone, she is convinced her mother is going to come pick her up. But while she is waiting she meets her first real friend in the home of the Widows, Kalyani. Kalyani is one of the most friendly, thoughtful Widow. One other thing that separates her from the others is she is the only one with her long hair.
