In a cluttered news landscape dominated by men, emerges India’s only newspaper run by Dalit women. Armed with smartphones, Chief Reporter Meera and her journalists break traditions on the frontlines of India’s biggest issues and within the confines of their own homes, redefining what it means to be powerful.

Feels like they only scratched the surface of each story - I wish they’d gone deeper.

I was very inspired by these women and what they’re doing, complemented by the filmmaker’s amazing choice of characters. I do think there was some exposition missing, but other than that this was a lovely surprise.

Went in expecting traditional Oscar bait. Found a fascinating story instead.
