Review of Ekaj (2015) by Tony S — 06 Nov 2018

Ekaj" handles its material well, though a sense of fatalism runs through it that is palpable and real. When a character is raped, this is felt acutely. "Get over it, everyone gets raped," one character opines.

"You know, only ugly people don't get raped." The point here is not to admonish nor defend the act itself. "Ekaj" wants us to understand the mindset of its protagonists, and accomplishes this with ease.
