THIS FILM IS AVAILABLE ONLY FOR IN-PERSON VIEWING.


Amidst the migration of their friends and neighbours for the winter, two widows, Ratima and Kalima, choose to remain behind as caretakers of their empty village. Isolated and snowbound for a hundred days of winter, they rely solely on each other for companionship and support. However, their common past – having been married to the same man for fifty years – often comes up between them. As winter deepens, staying alive becomes a greater priority than their responsibilities as caretakers. The film also portrays a poignant conflict between the desire for progress and the weight of heritage. Shot with breathtaking visuals, No Winter Holidays offers a reflective, intimate look at the human spirit, examining how communities adapt, endure, and dream amid the isolation of rural life.
