Sandhya Suri | UK | Germany India | France | 2024 | 128’
This punchy, muscular Hindi-language police procedural set in rural north India, elegantly scripted by writer/director Sandhya Suri, combines gripping, gritty storytelling with a deft acknowledgment of some of the murkier aspects of modern India: the police corruption and brutality, the baked-in sexism, the caste prejudice and anti-Muslim sentiment. It strikes a tricky balance between perceptive, issue-led film-making and propulsive entertainment. When a low-caste girl is murdered, Santosh is pulled into the investigation by charismatic feminist inspector Sharma.
