These two documentary films are based on the tragedy in Nandigram. The police firing in Nandigram on 14th March 2007 has disturbed peace-loving democratic minded people across the country. The Left Front Government in West Bengal has come under intense political attack on the issue from the entire spectrum of political opposition, from the ultra-Right to the ultra-Left. The truth of course was lost in the din of shrill anti-Left propaganda. By revisiting the police firing on 14th March 2007, the sequence of events which led to it as well as its aftermath, the documentaries portray the tragedy as it unfolded.

At KC Open Air Theatre, JNU
