Audience Reviews
‘Kalki Koechlin – Anurag Kashyap provides a fascinating look at morals, from a relativistic viewpoint. A Girl In Yellow Boots focuses on Ruth, about 21, is in search of her father. She lives in Bombay, speaks the language and knows the customs. Her mother is English and her father a Hindu. He mysteriously left after the suicide of her younger sister, Emily. The film is well acted and the dialog crisp. The story unveils at a slow and interesting pace. You may not like what she finds at the end of her journey, and she’ll be worse for it because of it, but it does provide closure.’
‘After watching That Girl In Yellow Boots online I have noticed that this movie is not your typical emblematic desi flick.
