A shocking short film with an even more disturbing ending.

I came across this short film on YouTube. I pressed on the trailer thinking how can a Bollywood film show nudity. The exotic women shown in the trailer were sensual but aft starting the film I was shocked. Mind u, this short film is not made for voyeuristic or titillating effects. It is based on true events. The director did a wonderful job of making a short film on a woman who stood up against the regressive n racists laws.

The film is based on the breast tax which was forced by the upper caste on the lower caste women, which was to be paid if they wanted to cover their breasts.

Finally with the advent of Christianity thru the Britishers n by the revolt by the lower castes, this law faded away but things r still bad for the lower caste in my beloved n beautiful India. Love the Britishers for getting rid of Sati too.

According to Dr Sheeba KM, Professor of gender ecology and Dalit studies, the very purpose of the breast tax was to maintain the caste hierarchy.
