Each night of the week, she is forced to sleep with one of the men, including Ramcharan. She is then married to all the five sons simultaneously. Ramcharan (Sudhir Pandey) a wealthy man and the father of five young men finds out about a single young girl, named Kalki ( Tulip Joshi), living some distance from the village and buys her from her father. They are shown to be willing to go to the lengths of human trafficking and courtship-driven emigration to procure spouses for themselves. The now uncouth and aggressive young men of the village are desperate for wives and release their frustration through group screenings of imported pornographic films, cross-dressed dance performances, and even bestiality. Many years later somewhere around 2050 A.D., this unchecked trend leads to the village being populated mainly by males and a tiny number of older women. Her disappointed father, who was hoping for a boy, drowns her in vat of milk in a public ceremony. The story begins in a rural village in Bihar, with the delivery of a baby girl to a village couple. Matrubhoomi received widespread critical acclaim and was shown at festivals through 2003, including the 2003 Venice Film Festival, where it was presented in the Critic's Week (Parallel Sections) and later awarded the FIPRESCI Award "For it's important theme on women's issues and female infanticide handled with sensitivity by a first-time director". It depicts a future in an Indian village populated exclusively by males due to female infanticide over the years. Its storyline bears some resemblance to real-life instances of gender imbalance and economics resulting in fraternal polyandry and bride buying in some parts of India. The film examines the impact of female foeticide and female infanticide on the gender balance and consequently the stability and attitudes of society. Matrubhoomi: A Nation Without Women ( Hindi: मातृभूमि, translation: Motherland) is a 2003 Indian dystopian tragedy film written and directed by Manish Jha.
