Description
In December 2012 a young medical student was brutally gang-raped on board a bus in Delhi. Horrified by the attack, 28-year-old British Asian Radha Bedi travels to India to uncover the reality of life for young women there. Radha has been to India before, but this time she's travelling alone and facing up to some painful truths about her ancestral homeland. Radha has faced sexual harassment herself in India on past visits and difficult memories return as she meets girls who've suffered appalling brutality. As well as coming face to face with the father of the Delhi rape victim, Radha meets 15 year-old Tuba, who has horrific burns all over her body caused in an acid attack from a rebuffed male admirer.
