Aneek's previous film, The Wife's Letter premiered at the 2017 edition of Cannes and was recently released on Amazon Prime.
White is a Bengali film which follows the stories of three rape survivors — a factory worker, a single mother and a wife — as they look to fight back after their traumatic experiences.
“Rape is a serious issue that many modern day directors portray in a form that victimises a person; White is a film that in turn talks about the consequences of rape and how a victim confronts her position after rape and attempts to live a better life,” Aneek said in a statement.

"White speaks of a ray of optimism that always appears in darkness. And women being the ones always bearing the brunt of many things in this society, have grown this instinct of surviving and fighting the most dreadful situations. Rape is certainly one of them," he added.
It is produced by the Gurgaon-headquartered La Artiste Productions.
