Trailer: Women of Truth and Courage:
The Widows of Kalangarai

For centuries, widowed and abandoned women in India have been treated as outcasts by Indian society. They are among the poorest of the poor in India, especially if they are low-caste women. This documentary traces the footsteps of a widowed woman, Mrs. Manjula, who joins other widows in a movement to challenge cultural and social ostracism. The women’s stories of courage and hope in the face of adversity provide us with a vision of how women can be empowered to change their lives and society. We’ll be posting the times and locations of upcoming showings soon.
