- A just-divorced businesswoman must resolve her personal insecurities about sharing custody with her ex-husband and learn to accept the situation or risk losing her daughter's love.
- AFFLICTION is a relationship drama about an independent-minded woman MELANIE whose life is changed when she realizes that her stance of keeping her daughter MERYL away from her divorced husband, JOHN, is causing her daughter more harm than good.—Anonymous
- MELANIE is an independent-minded woman, works in a major corporation. She had always dreamed of having a marriage of her own that was perfect, like that of her parents, an inspiring relationship which spans forty years. Although she married John with such high hopes, it did not work out that way. She and John divorced after ten years of a marriage that had become insufferable. Melanie has recently won custody of her 8 year old daughter Meryl, after a long and bitter legal battle. This is a story of Melanie's mounting anxiety after she returns from work one evening to find Meryl has gone out on an unscheduled visit with John. Melanie is barely able to contain her rage and paranoia. Her behavior is fueled, in part, by her underlying fear that her own relationship to her daughter may be compromised by a man against whom she still harbors the most hostile of feelings. Even though John loves Meryl, she finds the thought of her daughter loving him as much as she loves her intolerable, even painful. Impulsively, and motivated largely by vengeance and selfishness, she tries to cut John entirely out of Meryl's life. But, in so doing, she forces her daughter to choose sides - a situation that is impossible for Meryl. This conflict grows into a full-blown affliction for Meryl who, ultimately, becomes unable to repress her emotions, spilling them in front of Melanie. The development is a revelation for Melanie, who, having newly witnessed the pain she caused the child changes her ways, allowing John into the Meryl's life, for the sake of her daughter.—Prabal Chakraborty
