As with other North Eastern states, culturally and ethnically Manipur has remained estranged from the dominant Indian culture and has repeatedly sought to assert its identity through insurgency. In 1980-81 the Indian state countered by giving unprecedented powers to its army to deal with insurgency. The 'Armed Forces Special Powers Act, gives complete immunity to the army and led to killings and rapes. In August 2004 a group of women disrobed in front of the army barracks holding banners saying "Indian Army Rape us". The film looks at the consequences of this violence on ordinary people.
