Republic of Mahalaxmi Apartment

Directed by Niladri Mukherjee

Vidya, a single mother and staunch idealist, moves into Mahalaxmi Apartment as a tenant, a housing society with hidden cracks. One night, she encounters a terrifying elevator malfunction and reports it to Sharma, the egoistical building president, who refuses to believe anything could be wrong—especially based on the word of an “outsider." Alarmed by his ignorance, Vidya warns the residents of impending danger, but their blind faith in Sharma silences her. Determined to expose the truth, she uncovers the shocking corruption within the system, and when she tries to speak, she gets branded an enemy of society.
