Santosh
Nothing is more dangerous than following orders.
Directed by Sandhya Suri
Produced by Good Chaos, Suitable Pictures
A morally complex crime thriller that uses a widow's entry into rural Indian policing to expose systemic corruption, caste violence, and the impossible compromises demanded of those seeking justice.
A government scheme sees newly widowed Santosh inherit her husband’s job as a police constable in the rural badlands of Northern India. When a low-caste girl is found raped and murdered, she is pulled into the investigation under the wing of charismatic feminist inspector Sharma.
