Brief thoughts on SONGS OF FORGOTTEN TREES (2025) Venice 2025

 


In Mumbai an actress who moonlights as a sex worker shares an apartment with an IT worker. Over time the women bond.

This is a slice of life about the lives of the two women at the center. While there are other characters crossing through the film, the truth is it's primarily just the two women interacting and talking about their lives. 

This is a solid little film, while the film didn't fully resonate with me, I think this is a film that is going to speak to the soul of many women, I did appreciate it charms and it's focused nature. The film keeps things under control and it doesn't try to open things up artifically. The performances are excellent.

If you like dramas, this is a small gem of a film you should keep an eye out for.
