Only problem with this film:


In the beginning it showed her love for her sister and country and then told the story of how a she, a young Bangladesh girl is sold into an arranged marriage to a man in London.

It showed flashbacks how she remembered her sister and playing together and suddenly she had 2 daughters and had been married for 17 years. Did they skip a reel? This was a shock to me but I quickly understood this very brilliant story and went along with this misstep by the writers.

Only thing I say is they should have put a little more time into these 17 years and life with her husband and children..............IMO.
