Pink Sari’s are worn by the Gulabi Gang, a group of women vigilantes led by the formidable Sampat Pal who campaign on behalf of ‘untouchable’ women in India. Not the most diplomatic, or indeed likeable of women Sampat Pal, a ball-busting force of nature, bullies husbands, families and the police into treating vulnerable young women better. The intrepid Kim Longinotto’s latest is another fascinating, psychologically complex portrait of a charismatic, flawed-but-heroic woman fighting social injustice and domestic abuse.

“Another angry and articulate addition to a singular body of work.” Variety
