The story of Nirbhaya. I aim to share the insights I have gleaned on an extremely challenging and harrowing journey while making a documentary about the gang-rape and murder of 'India's Daughter', the 23 year old medical student, in Delhi in December 2012. When starting on this endeavour, strongly inspired by the protests which this gang-rape sparked, I set off with the question WHY? Why do brutal rapes take place and why with such frequency? What sort of monsters are capable of such brutality in such flagrant disregard of civilised values? The answers I found were resounding and surprising. The answer lies not in the men who perpetrate the barbaric acts but in the society that seeds and even encourages such acts.
