The Constitution of India defines and declares the nation state’s common goal – To secure to all the citizens of India, justice – social, economic and political, Liberty; equality and fraternity. However, serious problems beset the judicial system as a result of which it is largely dysfunctional, unaccountable, inaccessible and insensitive, especially to the poor. The Film is an attempt to decipher the judicial process in India from the standpoints of the all the stake holders: people who are the seekers of justice, lawyers who are the intermediaries of justice and the Judiciary that dispenses justice; in the process, understanding how far removed we are from the constitutional vision of Justice.
