Description
“Brothers Written by Sisters” stems from a simple but overlooked truth: while Raksha Bandhan traditionally celebrates a brother’s duty to protect, it often ignores the sister’s role in shaping who that brother becomes. Growing up, sisters are often co-authors of their brothers’ values, influencing how they understand respect, empathy, and equality through everyday interactions. The film brings this insight to life by tracing the evolving relationship between siblings across different life stages. Through moments of play, conflict, guidance, & care, it shows how sisters quietly challenge biases & nurture emotional awareness in their brothers. By shifting the lens from protection to partnership, the communication reframes Raksha Bandhan as a relationship of mutual influence and growth. It questions the inherent hierarchy of the ritual and replaces it with a more balanced narrative one where both siblings shape, support, and stand for each other, making equality a lived experience.
