A child's determination to keep her family together, When the all-powerful adults are intent on destroying it. Six-year old Shruti knows something no one else does. An alien has come in place of her mother and her real mother has been sent to the Orion Galaxy. While the alien looks just like her mother on the outside, Shruti knows she is completely different from her beloved mother on the inside. Shruti turns to her brother for help but he doesn't believe her. Her father, like always, remains wrapped in work and unavailable to her.

Unable to accept the Alien in her home and desperate to be with her mother, the lonely child runs away. What follows is a child's passage to finding her real mother, a man's struggle to save his family and a woman's journey to finding herself.

It's betrayed by sluggish pacing, and an indulgent screenplay packed with long scenes containing no dialogue or drama

A sensitive and believable look at how domestic strife and violence can impact on a child’s psyche

For Real sets out to mine the rocky terrain between rowing adults and how it impacts children; it succeeds only partially

The film progresses at a sluggish pace, probably an attempt to showcase the sensitivity of the subject. The intent is sincere, but the gravity of the situation just does not seem convincing
