Plot Summary

Set in a fictional town of Kurdava, "One Candle, Two Candles" deals with the issue of arranged marriage and honor-related violence against women. Young Viyan, is forcibly given to wealthy older businessman, Hemmo. When on the wedding night she runs out of the bedroom and climbs a tree, refusing to sleep with him, the respected bridegroom loses face and becomes the laughing-stock of the town. In return, he punishes her by locking her up in the bedroom. The more the townsfolk mock him the more violent he becomes. To add fuel to the fire, a traveling young artist, Botan tries to reach out to her with a proposal to elope. "One Candle, Two Candles" is populated with colorful characters, including a few misfits with eyebrow-raising sense of humor; intertwined subplots; and a surprise ending. Written by Evini films
