Event Description : FILM "Are They Better Off"
The film explores the matrilineal society of Meghalaya, its socio-political complexities and contextualizes it with the status of women nationally. In a place where the birth of a daughter is welcomed and lineage is traced from the mother’s clan or kur, with changing times, the importance of women is diminishing. Through the stories of three Khasi women, the film reveals their customs and traditions.
