AANGAN SE AASMAN TAK

What a beautiful documentary about a young woman in India who strikes out on her own and builds a successful restaurant business.

The story follows a young woman names Aangan Se Aasman Tak who uses her cooking skills to start four canteens in her community. It speaks for women's empowerment and strength and shows how, with the help of Self Help Groups, Aangan not only helped herself but other women in her community as well.

The film is beautifully made, with lovely camera work, nice and clear audio recording and great editing. The background music is Indian and appropriately selected to enhance the tone of the film. Congratulations to Anaihita Agarwal, the young filmmaker who created this piece. It certainly shows her passion for the subject matter and her control of the material.

The film's message is about women's resilience and strength. It serves as a reminder to other women that, against all odds, you can succeed when you put your mind to something.

I give this film 4 out of 5 stars and recommend it for ages 8 to 18, plus adults. By Janet S., KIDS FIRST!

Aangan Se Aasman Tak captures the quiet strength and determination of Hemlata, a woman whose journey from her home kitchen to managing four canteens through the support of her Self-Help Group (SHG) stands as a testament to empowerment through community. The film explores the journey of how she moves from the Aangan, the courtyard of her home, to the Aasman, a world of financial independence and opportunity. It portrays how economic participation can transform identity, self-worth, and the way women see their place in the world.
