HG Streams: Film On A Haryana Man Who Married A Gang Rape Survivor
Filmmaker and journalist Vibha Bakshi’s documentary, Son Rise, which won National Awards for Best Film (non- feature) and Best Editing (non-feature) in 2019, is a harrowing reportage on female infanticide in Haryana and its adjoining areas. A documentary on female subjugation and repression, it puts men in a spot to question their culpability, as well as their efforts to eradicate the situation.
The documentary is not one that sensationalises the wrongdoings of men. Instead, it aims to include men in the conversation around a safer and a more gender-sensitive world.
Check out the trailer of the documentary here.
