Director: Jyoti Nisha

Through the discerning gaze of a Bahujan feminist filmmaker operating within the upper-caste Indian film industry, the film delves into critical themes of liberty, equality, fraternity, social justice, exclusion and marginalized representation. Bridging the realms of Ambedkarite politics with the visual language of cinema, it offers a poignant representation of the culture, history, and politics of marginalized communities within popular cinema and media. A cinematic embodiment of Dr. B.R. Ambedkar’s philosophical legacy, as it questions the deeply rooted institution of caste in India, the film becomes a powerful commentary on religion, revolution, politics, and the fundamental right to freedom of speech.
