Devi is a powerful short film directed by Priyanka Banerjee and stars actress Kajol. Shot in India, the story revolves around a safe house full of women ranging in various ages, all who have suffered at the hands of abuse. The differences between age and experiences trigger heated arguments among the women before being interrupted by someone ringing the bell to be let in. The women are now forced to decide if there is enough room in the home to take on another victim, which sparks more yelling. Without giving away too much, the film is masterfully done, creating awareness on the issues of physical abuse and sexual assault, with tear-jerking moments throughout. Devi is produced by Electric Apples Entertainment.
