This film treats a horribly tragic subject with honesty and respect. It is remarkable that the filmmakers just happened to be there on the day the original rape occurred. But it was a stroke of brilliance that cause them to follow the story closely for many years. What an incredible tale of an unimaginably determined girl and her family, seemingly battling all of India to get justice.
Some people may dread the idea of a film that starts with the rape of a 13 year old girl. And I understand that. I had trepidations. But I marveled at how the Nisha Patel managed to turn a tragic story into one of empowerment and hope. This is a must-see.
