KASTURBA GANDHI was the wife to an icon of the 20th century. But Mahatma Gandhi credited her with teaching him about nonviolence. Who was she? How did she “accidentally” become one of the first women activists in modern history? What is her connection to women activists today? History missed this Story. In this film, several insightful interviews and remarkable photos bring alive the life and activism of Kasturba Gandhi. The creator and producer of this award-winning film, Cynthia Lukas, will be present at this showing
to answer questions about lessons of Ms. Gandhi’s life, as well as the challenges of making a film during the Covid pandemic. Awards to date include: “Best Historical Subject” at the Global Nonviolent Film Festival, ”Best Biographical Film” at the Toronto International Women Film Festival, “Best Story” at the prestigious Santa Fe Film Festival and several awards from the Tagore International Film Festival in India.
