Applause followed the screening slowly, marked by a contemplative silence as viewers took time to process the film’s emotional weight. | |||
In post-screening discussions, ''Sohla'' continued to inspire thoughtful conversations. Festival attendees shared personal stories prompted by the film, speaking of family, loss, and transformation. Rather than loud acclaim, the film generated sustained and heartfelt recommendations, with viewers urging others to watch it with emotional preparedness. | |||
