Najma

Anita Nair

A searing story about a young woman's struggle to overcome the effects of a violent acid attack, Najma asks some tough questions about the way gender operates in modern India. In a society where men seem to feel entitled to a woman's body and mind, and where criminals get away with the most inhuman of acts, what can a woman do to keep her sanity and find the motivation to live?
