India's Daughter
Streaming video - 2020
On a cold night in December 2012, Jyoti Singh, a 23 year old medical student from Delhi, was brutally raped and killed on a bus by a gang of six men. This attack in India's capital led to a national outpouring of rage and sent shockwaves around the world, with protesters demanding a long-awaited change in attitudes towards women. Unflinching in her commitment to the truth, director Leslee Udwin challenges lazy narratives surrounding the case by showing how a deeply unequal and divided society breeds the kind of gendered violence that lead to this tragic event.
