The Oscar-shortlisted doc from New Delhi-born director Nisha Pahuja is a powerful and risky example of the vitality of modern nonfiction filmed in South Asia. It joins recent films like \u201cAll That Breathes,\u201d \u201cAgainst the Tide,\u201d \u201cWhile We Watched\u201d and \u201cA Night of Knowing Nothing,\u201d which fill the narrative gaps too often left by mainstream Indian fiction, while adopting \u2014 and in many ways, re-invigorating \u2014 the visual language of traditional drama.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Much of the film follows Ranjit, the father of a 13-year-old survivor of a brutal gang rape, as he searches for justice for his daughter in their village in the eastern state of Jharkhand. However, the <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/download-scripts-themes-apps\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"9\" title=\"Download Scripts &amp; Themes &amp; Apps\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">app<\/a>roach taken by Pahuja and cinematographer Mrinal Desai is less in the traditional \u201ctalking head\u201d vein, and more akin to an intimate drama. Its gentle, piercing closeups make us familiar with Ranjit\u2019s soulful eyes, as well as his receding and graying hairline over the several years the movie unfolds, as he battles economic hardship and <a href=\"https:\/\/buradabiliyorum.com\/en\/category\/social-mediaa\/\" data-internallinksmanager029f6b8e52c=\"1\" title=\"Social Media\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">social<\/a> ostracization.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    His daughter, \u201cKiran\u201d (name changed for her protection) is introduced with a similar sense of intimacy, albeit through child-specific details, like the schoolgirl ribbons in hair. Her face does appear in the documentary, a decision taken with her approval once she turned 18 \u2014 the movie took eight years to make \u2014 but the film never feels as though it\u2019s intruding on her story. Although Pahuja asks numerous questions of all her adult subjects, she lets silences fill the space when interviewing Kiran, allowing her to find strength and bravery in her own time.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    That Kiran appears on screen at all feels like a defiant act, given the events she recounts, and the subsequent threats her family faces. At one point in the film, local villagers even descend upon the camera crew and object to their constant filming. No assaults or threats are recorded firsthand, but the very image of a local leader entering Ranjit\u2019s home to politely interrogate the filmmakers feels like a dangerous invasion, given the sense of comfort and safety with which Pahuja portrays his four walls, often lit by gentle sunlight pouring in from outside.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    This is perhaps the most important element of \u201cTo Kill a Tiger\u201d: the familial love and support afforded to Kiran amidst a culture of shame. Kiran\u2019s mother features in the movie too, offering warmth and encouragement, but the tale of an Indian father believing his daughter (and risking it all to protect her) feels depressingly novel, and this rarity makes it all the more vital.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Numerous women\u2019s rights activists, both men and women alike, weave in and out of the story, not only to assist in Kiran\u2019s court case, but to educate and liaise with the villagers in order to begin rooting out their culture of victim blaming. As it happens, these activists and their efforts were the movie\u2019s original subjects (when the project was titled \u201cSend Us Your Brother\u201d), until Pahuja found Ranjit and Kiran. By zeroing in on their story, the film transforms the specifics of their struggle into universalities both dispiriting and aspirational.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    Some of the interviews with Ranjit and Kiran\u2019s detractors \u2014 local village leaders who feel the matter could\u2019ve been handled internally, by marrying Kiran off to one of her assailants \u2014 are enraging to witness. Pahuja\u2019s muffled, un-mic\u2019d voice is heard on occasion, but her restraint in responding allows these interviewees to arrive at intriguing revelations. The perpetrators\u2019 defense attorney, for instance, concludes her tirade about Kiran\u2019s culpability with a stunning admission that hints at a deeper social malaise: that she wouldn\u2019t even trust her own son around a girl.<\/p>\n<p class=\"paragraph larva \/\/ lrv-u-margin-lr-auto  lrv-a-font-body-m   \">\n    \u201cTo Kill a Tiger\u201d reaches no enlightening conclusions about Indian masculinity, let alone solutions about rooting out its most dangerous tenets (beyond depicting activists holding public forums). Such a task, spanning a country of more than a billion people with a deluge of unreported assaults, would be too herculean for any one film. It\u2019s arguably the movie \u201cSend Us Your Brother\u201d would have tried to be, but in following the tireless travails of one loving father and his valorous teenage daughter, \u201cTo Kill a Tiger\u201d depicts a shining, poignant example of the difference individuals can make in altering the social fabric.<\/p>\n<\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
