Final Solution

On the morning of February 27, 2002, in the town of Godhra a train full of Hindu activists was attacked by a crowd of Muslims. One of the carriages was set on fire, causing the death of 59 people, all Hindu. In retaliation, the Muslim population in the region was massacred, ethnic cleansing which caused 2,500 deaths and created over 200,000 refugees. The documentary reconstructs the events questioning political responsibility.

"I'm aware of the historical significance of the film's title. What I'm referring to is the fact that there are tendencies that work in India right now which are unchecked. For instance you see that there is ghettoisation taking place in the cities. It is almost like what was happening in Germany in the early and mid 1930s. There is segregation which is beginning to take place in schools; there is a formal call for economic boycot. You hear the speech in the film being given by right wing activists. All these are similar tendencies and the biggest thing that you see in the film is a state-supported genocide of Muslims." (R. Sharma)
