Rambuai focuses attention on a period in the nation’s history that has rarely figured in contemporary discourse, official reports, civil society dialogues or even scholarly debates. The film looks not just at the years of conflict and disturbances in this beautiful pocket of India, but also at the transition in mindsets that has enabled peaceful change to endure, the resolve that drove the Indian State, and the challenges that remain
