The trailer of Sad Letters of an Imaginary Woman has released and it gives a glimpse at the eerie world by director Nidhi Saxena. In the trailer revealed the film will revolve around a middle-aged woman, Nidhi, and her ageing mother, Meera. Through haunting letters and imaginary phone calls to her younger self, Nidhi tackles deep-rooted trauma, attempting to rewrite the course of her unfulfilled life.
The trailer hints that the film will break down different emotional themes. The film is set to debut at the 29th Busan International Film Festival this October 2024. Check out the trailer below: Speaking about the film, Nidhi Saxena said, “My film is now stepping into the world, and though there’s a sense of thrill, my film is deeply personal, so there’s an undercurrent of fear also.
It feels as if I’ve laid down all my defenses, standing bare, exposed before the world, consciously choosing to embrace both vulnerability and courage. The trailer and poster capture the suffocating loneliness and the feeling of being trapped— echoes running through this story’s heart. It’s about women bound by memory, lost in the past.
In India, so many women carry this silence, and I hope the film speaks to them in ways that feel intimate and true". Producer Vimukthi Jayasundara added, “Bringing ‘Sad Letters by an Imaginary Woman’ to life has been a fantastic journey, with every frame filled with embracing boldness and experimentation. It is deeply personal and the kind of pure.
