Banoo (The Lady)

Banoo is a middle-aged woman who has become accustomed to a solitary life. Her husband goes on frequent and lengthy travels, and the imposed solitude provides Banoo with the opportunity for introspection. On her husband’s latest trip, she accidentally finds out that he has started living with another woman. The husband confesses and leaves home. Banoo’s bitterness does not last long, and soon her attention is turned to a nearby house which has been demolished. When she finds out that the gardener from the demolished house and his ailing wife have no place to live, she takes them in. With the arrival of the gardener’s family, Banoo’s life undergoes fundamental changes.
