Description:

Documentary concerning two young women living in modern India, a country involved in a fast-paced transformation process. One begins an intense month-long boot camp in Bombay with the objective of winning the Miss India beauty pageant. For the winner, it means instant stardom and a lucrative career. The second woman is training younger women in physical combat to fight Islam in a camp run by the Durgha Vahini, a militant fundamentalist movement. There, the young women also learn how to be obedient Hindu women. These two women represent opposing extremes but also share a common dream: to shape the future of India. <89mn 30s>
