Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka

Through a series of interviews with the lower castes, penniless laborers, some government officials, a lawyer, and finally, men who were blinded by the police in 1981, police crimes against humanity are chillingly revealed. As historical footage notes the difficulties encountered under British colonialism, they pale next to the atrocities committed by the Indian "law enforcement" officers. The empty eye sockets of the blinded men are mute but shocking testimony to the truth of government-sanctioned brutality.
