Article 15

Directed by Anubhav Sinha2h 10m2019

A young IPS officer’s new posting in rural India has him confronting caste disparities and uncomfortable truths in the face of a gruesome crime. When three girls go missing in the fictional village of Lalgaon, two of them are found dead and there is no trace of the third one. Where is she and who is responsible for this heinous act?

Our read: Article 15 (2019) reads as a heavy, steady, grounded drama · thriller entry — measured in intensity, mid-stakes in scope, cold in temperature, nihilistic in outlook.
