Gender Equality Starts At Home

Last week, I did something I rarely do: I ran out of the room in tears before the end ofthe documentary we were watching. It was India's Daughter, directed by Leslie Udwin. The film revolves around the December 2012 horrific gang rape on a bus, of Jyoti Singh Pandey, a 22-year-old medical student in the capital city Delhi. The heinous crime triggered massive protests internationally and in India itself. Udwin dedicated two years of her working life making this documentary, in which she interviews a large number of people including politicians, lawyers, convicted rapists, surviving victims and victims' families.
