Manusangada

In a small village in India, a man named Kolappan is denied the right to give his deceased father a proper burial because of his low caste status. Determined to fight for equality, Kolappan takes his case to court and faces resistance from the very people who are supposed to uphold the law. Despite the obstacles, he refuses to back down and his village rallies behind him in a powerful show of support. Based on a real-life incident, Manusangada is a powerful drama that shines a light on the deep-seated prejudices that still exist in Indian society and the brave individuals who are fighting against them.
