Denouncing Inequality

Description

Poverty, pariah women, caste rigidity: These are familiar ills in India, even today. To grasp the scale of the problem, we meet photojournalists Sudharak Olwe, Sanjit Das, and Mansi Thapliyal, who illustrate their country’s shocking inequalities. The film switches from the city to the countryside, taking in nomadic dancers from the villages of Maharashtra, peasants of Odisha dispossessed by steel companies, and “untouchable” trash collectors in the slums of Mumbai, capturing the deep-rooted inequalities in Indian society.
