Bandit Queen (1995)
Directed by Shekhar Kapur
Overview
Born a lower-caste girl in rural India’s patriarchal society, “married” at 11, repeatedly raped and brutalized, Phooland Devi finds freedom only as an avenging warrior, the eponymous Bandit Queen. Devi becomes a kind a bloody Robin Hood; this extraordinary biographical film offers both a vivid portrait of a driven woman and a savage critique of the society that made her.
