28 is a Sri Lankan feature film.In a country where sexuality has become a vulgarity, a man sees his wife’s nudity for the first time as she lied dead after being sexually assaulted on a mortuary table and then struggles emotionally, to at least claim as his own, the merest part of her body.[1][2][3]

Synopsis

Lenin is livid that he has been tricked into transporting a dead body but,seeing the dead Suddhi’s torso he agrees unconditionally to transport her body back to the village.When the coffin arrives at his home, the villagers already know how Suddhi died through newspaper reports and rumors resulting in Abasiri being humiliated in front of them.

Suddhi addresses the mourners at her own funeral stating that she is now bereft of fear and censure since she is dead and provides telling and powerful testimony on behalf of all women.
