INDIA’s DAUGHTER is the story of the short life, brutal gang rape and murder in Delhi in December 2012 of an exceptional and inspiring young woman.

Short Synopsis: An ode to memory: Three couples affected by a partner’s recent diagnosis of Early Alzheimer’s come to terms with their changing roles. Prominent Alzheimer’s medical experts offer their perspectives on diagnosis, the nature of the disease, helpful attitudes in caring for loved ones affected by the disease, stigma, support for caregivers, clinical trials, and overall healthcare concerns. This film is a primer for anyone who is curious about Alzheimer’s or who wishes to learn more about coping skills from both sides of the fence: caregiver and patient. The film also advocates for more funding for Alzheimer’s research, a warning about the tsunami of aging baby boomers who will be overwhelming the health care system with dementia, and the health risks to caregivers who must care for their loved ones.

Short Synopsis:
Beverley follows a mixed race girl’s struggles to carve out a sense of identity in a confusing, shifting cultural landscape, 1980 Leicester. A move from the decaying, poverty-stricken, urban environment to the relative comfort and theoretical safety of white suburbia does not provide the hope and opportunities Bev may have wished for. A familiar enemy is ever present – a threat that extends beyond her own safety – more importantly she must protect her brother and sister. By asserting her will and using her guile, Bev tries to shape her new environment into something palatable, but the result is the opposite of what she is trying to achieve.
