Why watch the movie Ladies First?
"Awarded at the London International Independent Film Festival, 'Ladies First' is a forty-minute documentary short that tells two powerful stories. On one hand, there's Deepika Kumari, who defied all the challenges posed by poverty and machismo in rural India to become number one in archery in the world at the young age of eighteen. On the other, the documentary also speaks about the persistent, deep, and violent gender inequality affecting women in the country, even from before birth, which only confirms Kumari's achievements as something simply extraordinary."
