Flowers of Acacia is an intimate look at women whose lives and labour often go unseen, exploring their aspirations, vulnerabilities, and the realities of seeking agency in a society that limits both.
Director Anmol Sidhu spent two years writing the film and travelling with wedding orchestra groups to understand the experiences of the women at its centre. Filmed entirely at real weddings, the film draws on Sidhu’s commitment to realism to bring audiences into a world he first encountered growing up in rural Punjab.
