Sister Midnight
Sister Midnight
A genre-bending comedy about a frustrated and misanthropic newlywed who discovers certain feral impulses that land her in unlikely situations.
Ranveer reviewedJune 18, 2025
A thrillingly unpredictable, deeply odd cinematic pulse—powered by Radhika Apte’s fearless performance and Kandhari’s daring vision.
Sister Midnight is a wild, unforgettable ride—a surreal fusion of black comedy, feminist satire, psychological horror, and punk-rock rebellion. It’s a bold debut from Kandhari, elevated by Apte’s magnetic presence and a fearless aesthetic. It’s not for the faint of heart—or those seeking a neat narrative—but for anyone craving cinema that defies expectations, it delivers in a bizarre, exhilarating way.
Ideal for: Fans of experimental cinema (Repulsion, A Girl Walks Home Alone at Night), genre mash-ups, unsparing character studies, and standout physical performances.
Not for: Traditional drama lovers, continuity purists, or those uncomfortable with gore and surrealism.
