Maya is an urban millennial with a very full life. So it comes as a shock to her friends when she goes offline and ghosts them all of a sudden. As their enquiry into her absence gets increasingly frantic, Maya herself oscillates between fear and honesty, therapy and godmen, superstition and nostalgia. Crushed by generational trauma and long-hidden secrets, she chases faith and love in the most hopeless places, knowing that the only way out is through.
The Other Sister weaves a complex web, with a fair share of drama featuring an absent mother, a rotating cast of friends and lovers, an attentive but distant brother, and Akira, who defies description. It is a haunting exploration of young lives in disarray; a social media generation that’s hyper-connected yet somehow still isolated and misunderstood.
