In 2020, Calcutta and the state of West Bengal faced a double jeopardy. On one hand the COVID-19 pandemic and nation-wide lock down caused widespread unemployment and hunger. On the other, Amphan, the worst recorded cyclone in over 200 years, hit the city and parts of the state. However, the women of Calcutta fought on. The new crisis only added to the problem of gender inequality and patriarchal injustice. This film is a tribute to these women, the true heroes of our times, in fact of all times.
