Mehrunisa

When eighty-year-old Mehrunisa is offered a role in a gigantic Bollywood film after the death of her patriarchal husband, the former actress declares war on the powerful male-dominated film industry. Starring Farrukh Jaffar, the grande dame of Indian cinema, the Austrian-Indian arthouse drama tells the touching emancipation story of Mehrunisa, which fights against discrimination and becomes an idol for millions of women.
