The World Before Her: women learning to kill or wear a bikini in India

Extracts from award-winning film-maker Nisha Pahuja’s new feature-length documentary, The World Before Her. Pahuja’s film examines the contradictory realities between a Hindu nationalist training camp where girls are trained to kill in self-defence and the bikini-clad women of the Miss India pageant. Tradition and modernity are on collision course.
