Focus Years: 2004 | Country: Spain
Synopsis:
A widespread women’s movement is changing the image of 21st-century India. Discriminated against from birth, and even before they are born, Indian women are beginning to reclaim their place in this society. Stories such as that of Savita, a nine-year-old girl who is forced to marry, may seem to come straight from the Middle Ages, but they are everyday occurrences in India. Women’s unions, micro-credit systems and private struggles to ensure that the untouchables will be considered people are more active than ever in 2004, the International Year of the Indian Woman.
