Plot

The story of a family facing a medical emergency and the bureaucratic apathy of the medical institution.

The movie although good to watch lacks in major places. The title itself seems puzzling as it doesn't suit the story. Though its titled "Aama", which means mother in nepali, it focuses on the struggles of daughter. The setting of the movie is also inadequate as it mostly revolves around the hospital walls. At many scenes the dialogues of the characters are inaudible because of the overpowering sound effects of rain and bangle clanking. The acting skills also seems to lack in certain instance.
