This anthology explores the concept of lust through the stories of modern Indian women, and the result is both sexy and groundbreaking.
Formed by four separate stories, Lust Stories aims to break taboos in the representation of sexually active Indian women. The segments follow these different characters as they deal with forbidden desires, prejudices and societal restrictions.
The movie, co-directed by Anurag Kashyap, Zoya Akhtar, Dibakar Banerjee and Karan Johar, landed a 100% rating on Rotten Tomatoes.
It’s a hidden gem worth discovering on Netflix, and a beautiful exploration of female sexuality.
If you can’t get enough, Lust Stories 2 is also now on Netflix, but it’s nowhere near as good.
