In Search of Gandhi (India)

In the early decades of the twentieth century Mahatma Gandhi's legacy of non-violent revolution or Satyagraha inspired a mass movement of millions of Indians to rise up against the British colonial state and successfully agitate for the establishment of a democratic and free India. In 2007, the country is preparing to celebrate the sixtieth anniversary of its existence as an independent nation. But what kind of a democracy does India have today? What does it actually mean to live in the world's largest democracy? In road-movie style the film crew travels down the famous trail of Gandhi's salt march.
