Our take

Gandhari is a grim crime film. A mother goes blind, then her little girl is taken. The hunt includes talk of a child sex-trafficking ring and a threat about a child's dead body. Swearing is light. Best for older teens who already handle grim crime. Too heavy for younger teens

Uplifting themes

A parent will not give up on her daughter. The mother keeps going after she loses her sight. The methods are desperate, not neat The mother keeps going after she loses her sight. The methods are desperate, not neat

Story (may spoil tone)

When a mother loses her eyesight and her daughter in a kidnapping, she takes matters into her own hands to hunt down those responsible.
