The film brings together dance, poetry, and sound to interrogate the experiences of women lawyers in India. A critical commentary on the exclusionary gaze in the physical spaces of law-making, the film is grounded in qualitative findings that bring out questions about the role of identity power in the way law reflects, translates, and shapes social reality. It is an embodied poetic inquiry into how the invisibility (or hyper-visibility) of women in the legal profession systemically reinforces patriarchy and perpetuates epistemic injustice.
