Event Description

DIRECTOR: Ila Mehrotra
UK, 2024,
1 HOUR 18 MINUTES,
ENGLISH/HINDI + ENGLISH SUBTITLES

Far from a bleak story of suffering and discrimination, this film explores the world of India’s ‘third gender’ (Hijra) in a positive way, full of laughter, drama, excitement, and pathos.

An emotionally charged seven-year journey follows the extraordinary story of Rudrani Chettri and her friends from baby blessings, red light districts and dazzling Hindu festivals
to the glamorous world of photoshoots, designers, hair and make-up, lights and electrifying action. As traditional Hindu values clash with modern human rights, we discover the transgender trans – Hijra community of Delhi as they set about creating India’s first ever trans modelling agency and an extravagant, paradigm-shifting, catwalk event.
