On 17 January 2016, PhD research scholar and Dalit activist Rohith Vemula committed suicide, unable to bear persecution from a partisan university administration and caste supremacists. His suicide note, which argued against the “value of a man being reduced to his immediate identity” galvanised student politics in India. Over the following year thousands of students all over broke the silence around their experiences of caste discrimination in educational institutions and have started a powerful anti-caste movement. The film tracks this movement that is changing the conversation on caste in India.
