Women widowed in the 1984 anti-Sikh riots recollect painful memories of one of Indian history's darkest chapters. Living together in a poor settlement in Delhi, these brave women await justice from the Indian government, justice that is past due by over two decades.

Director Harpreet Kaur offers a platform for the unheard and suppressed voices of these widows who continue to challenge half-hearted efforts of the law, while sharing their children's struggle for a secure future.
