Perianayaki(2022)

Drama
11 min.

Fifty-six-year-old Perianayaki contends with the difficulties of fitting into her new home, especially at the local supermarket where she works. Eye-opening and brimming with compassion, the latest film from director Bala Murali Shingade is a slice-of-life character study that provokes questions about multiculturalism and our assumptions about the people we encounter in daily life.

"For this Sri Lankan immigrant, it’s another day of stacking supermarket shelves – and of cultural misunderstandings."
