'Ente' is a film that has a theme that is extremely pertinent, but which falls short of convincingly conveying its message across. It's hard to dismiss the film as such, but one does end up wishing that the socio-cultural expose that it attempts was harder hitting.
Durga (Anjali Patil) is a school topper who hails from Amalapuram, who aspires to join one of the best business schools in the country. She takes after her dad Sreenivasan (Siddique) when it comes to raising her voice against what she deems wrong. Off she goes for an interview to Hyderabad, where her dad leaves her in a hotel room. Within hours Durga finds herself in a brothel, where she is subjected to multiple rapes
We have had two films in recent years - 'Vairam' and 'Janakan' - both of which had a doting father and a daughter playing the lead roles. The girls get raped in both and the fathers seek justice. 'Ente' starts off pretty much on the very same note, and it's the initial hour that makes it seem like a very average film.
Just about the half point, along comes a twist in the tale that does spring a surprise on us. The physical trauma gives way to bruises on her psyche, as she makes a discovery that literally shreds her to pieces. She gives in pretty soon, and is resigns to her fate as she is repeatedly abused by men.
The sex trafficking trade has been reported to have been booming during the last several years, despite stringent efforts being made to curb its invasion into the society.
