In a small Indian village, Ranjit wakes up to find that his 13-year-old daughter has not returned from a family wedding. A few hours later, she’s found stumbling home. After being dragged into the woods, she was raped by three men. Ranjit goes to the police, and the men are arrested. But Ranjit’s relief is short-lived, as the villagers and their leaders launch a sustained campaign to force the family to drop the charges. A cinematic documentary, To Kill a Tiger follows Ranjit’s uphill battle to find justice for his child. In India, where a rape is reported every 20 minutes and conviction rates are less than 30 percent, Ranjit’s decision to support his daughter is virtually unheard of. With tremendous access, we witness the emotional journey of an ordinary man facing extraordinary circumstances. A father whose love for his daughter forces a social reckoning that will reverberate for years to come. (ONF)

"This is a village matter, we’ll settle it internally." When this is essentially the unanimous opinion of the village in a case of gang rape, battery and death threats against a minor within the extended family, you would expect them to take the matter into their own hands and talk to the people concerned with their firsts. Well, no, the solution would be to marry one of the rapists off to the rape victim, as long as nothing happens to the boys, it's her own fault anyway, and who would want her now, yet a bad light will fall on the whole community... The desperate struggle of parents who defy convention and want to get justice for their daughter, drag the police and the courts into the solution and demand justice. But neither the community nor the state authorities are prepared for this, so they go "against the grain" in many ways. The most woke, gender and NGO ridden documentary far and wide. And that's just as well. Many scenes will give you chills, the father's look of despair in scenes like with the visiting attorney simultaneously handling several hundred cases is telling. Compelling, committed, necessary, worthwhile.
