| Synopsis:
This film is on the Participatory Rural Appraisal
or PRA, a postive and effective method or fural development.
This method has evolved after many years of effort
by the government and non-government organisations
to help trouble-prone villages to solve their problems,
and get and insight into their lifesytle. Under PRA,
the villagers themselves analyse their situation,
identity their problems, and work out solutions using
their own resources. This film intends to highlight
the effectiveness of the PRA bid to create awareness
about the system. |

THE
SHAME IS NOT MINE
Director
- Arun Chadha Country - India
|
|
|
| Synopsis:
In a society where rape evokes shame and stigma
for the victim, it is not surprising that most rape
cases go unreported. It is a painful social reality.
The outright violation of the law and fear of further
oppression forces thousands of women every year to
live with the trauma of rape, while the offenders
roam free. But in a backward and deeply feudal part
of Gujarat, one woman decided to fight the system.
Neeta Goswami a rape victim came out to openly fight
against the upper cast darbars. This film reveals
her inner strength and determination to take her struggle
to its rightful end. |
