Why did India ban a documentary on a deadly gang rape?
The 2012 deadly gang rape of a 23-year-old medical student in Delhi sparked outrage around the world and led to unprecedented protests. A new documentary, “India’s Daughter,” sheds light on the violence, shame and injustice that Indian women often face. Jeffrey Brown interviews Leslee Udwin, the film’s director, about why the case galvanized so much support and why India has banned the film.
