“Genuinely empowering. This is galvanising, boundary-pushing art at it’s best.” **** - The Guardian

Winner Special Jury Mention Prize 2023 Tribeca Festival. Nominated Festival de Cannes Compétition Immersive 2024. Exhibited Victoria & Albert Museum x LDF 2023.

An immersive story following Maya, an ordinary 21st Century girl, as she transforms into a uniquely female superhero whose powers derive from menstruation.

Staring Indira Varma (Game of Thrones), Charithra Chandran (Bridgerton) the piece was created by renowned artist and activist, Poulomi Basu and co-directed by CJ Clarke.

With the arrival of her first period Maya’s world is turned upside down as she is confronted by the restrictive traditions of her conservative family and a world of hidden shame, stigma and taboo that exist in contemporary London.

She must overcome her own shame and fear to find her inner strength and true super-powers.

Inspired by Poulomi Basu’s law changing impact art project ‘Blood Speaks’ about menstrual exile and violence against women in South Asia.

The Player must find the magic within themselves, discovering a strength that emerges out of trauma to be a power based on self love and solidarity.

The piece draws together the real and the magical to trace possible paths to resilience and justice.

Her name, Maya, means magic and illusion in Sanskrit.

Produced by Just Another Production Company in co-production with France Télévisions – Francetv Storylab, in conjunction with the Meta VR for Good program.

2/5

This is some next level feminist garbage. The movie is rooted in mysticism and witchcraft... perfect... just what young impressionable girls DONT need more of. Themed in Hindu culture, this movie has some nice artwork but overall the theme about a girl having her period and becoming some kind of superhero with superpowers is unrealistic and frankly unhelpful to and young person watching this.

Garbage

Was led to believe this game was about super heroes. Instead I was dragged through a whole bunch of propaganda about how having a period makes you strong. Monster design sucked. Mom and dads sucked. Played this game for like a minute before realizing that if I was a parent I would not in a million years have shown this to my daughter. The visuals are wrong. Not disturbing...wrong. I might actually just report this game. Its this bad.

Repulsive

The title of the so called game is deceptive, it's subject is gross, my wife couldn't even get past the tampon boat floating in period blood. Don't scar yourself for life and avoid this.

Must download for VR

It's free. It's one of the best made VR cinematic experiences. It has a strong message. Hand tracking was used to immerse you more in the narrative. Artistic visuals. 30 minutes long.

Wonderful achievement

I’m a middle aged father with a daughter. Due to this team’s extreme artistic ability, and the bravery to tackle such a taboo subject, I rate it 4 stars even though I can’t directly relate. If I felt the urge to chuckle at points, that was my own need to do some growing up when I think about it. Beautiful imagery, difficult subject. Worth trying.
