As we celebrate 65 years of a Republic India, let’s ask the
question that will mock the very concept of Independence. Are the Indian women
really ‘FREE’ today? The latest stats speak a horrifying truth... a woman is
raped every 20 minutes in India. On one hand, the Indian woman has found the
freedom to work and pursue her dream, to live life on her own terms, and decide
her destiny. On the other hand, she lives in the fear of being molested or
raped. So the question – have women really become independent?
We call ourselves a civilised society, but the acts of man
are unspeakably animalistic. Despite the outcry by people, the media barrage,
various initiatives by women and social organisations, we keep hearing new and
worst news – the latest being the Uber Taxi Rape.
In our effort to find a solution, we bring a film that at
least tries to combat this menace. It aims to give courage to women to face the
evils, and the confidence that she can fight back. “Attack” is a tribute to the
victim of the Delhi Gang Rape Nirbhaya, it is also a story triggered by the
Uber Taxi Rape. The film though, brings ‘hope’ and not ‘despair’.
Like their earlier attempt “Ashamed: Ab Toh Sharm Karo”, the
maker duo Khalil & Sulakshana Herekar have released “Attack” on YouTube
through Pocket Films and also on their own channel Arshh Films. Should you wish to view
the film, kindly click the link here: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IF_FeNdvJOY
