Anar marries Marat and lives with him and his son Adil. Pregnant Anar requires care, as she is anemic and at a high risk of miscarriage. When Marat hastens their move to the countryside, Anar finds herself in unfamiliar surroundings. Then Marat leaves to ask Anar′s father for a job and goes missing. Soon his creditors visit Anar. To make matters worse, Anar learns that Adil was raped. Now she begins a lonely fight to protect Adil. Red Pomegranate is the second feature film directed by Sharifa Urazbayeva, who came into the spotlight with her previous film Mariam (2019). Just like Mariam, Red Pomegranate depicts an independent and strong woman/mother who takes charge of her family during the absence of her irresponsible and incompetent husband and fights social prejudices. Director Sharipa Urazbayeva provides an objective portrait of the reality they face while warmly supporting Anar’s choices and Adil′s growth. (PARK Sun Young)
