MAHATMA GANDHI DOCUMENTARY WINS TOP HONOUR

A DOCUMENTARY based on Mahatma Gandhi’s philosophy of non-violence has won the best documentary feature award at the 21st New York Indian Film Festival.

Ahimsa – Gandhi: The Power of the Powerless, directed by Ramesh Sharma and produced by Anant Singh, was recently completed and partially shot in South Africa.

It speaks to the conscience of humanity as people globally grapple with intractable problems surrounding race, and as societies struggle to give the marginalised and underserved human dignity and restore fundamental human rights.

The film will have its UK premiere at the London Indian Film Festival today. |
