Synopsis

Mahatma Gandhi gave a 'Talisman' to use in moments of doubt and confusion. He asked us to recall the face of the poorest, most defenceless, most powerless man we have encountered. Hashiye Ke Log is an attempt to view the process of economic development undertaken by successive governments, during the past two decades-characterized as the period of unprecedented growth rates,'GDP's'-in the light of Gandhi's Talisman. It brings forth the tale of millions who have been suffering social exclusion for ages, and even in free India where justice and equality are the bedrock of governance, they are being subjected to economic exclusion. It questions the exclusionist economic policy as to why bumper GDP's numbers have failed to reach those in the lowest rung. The dream of economic and social justice can be clearly seen crashing as such the Hashiye Ke Log becomes all the more important at this juncture. Moreover, it also an attempt to showcase the life stories of marginalized sections of our society who, unfortunately, have been missing from popular mediums of expression, particularly cinema.
