Indias Sons

"No one discusses the honor and dignity of a man as all are busy fighting for women. A recent trend is to call a rape victim a rape survivor. In that case, should a man honorably freed in a rape case be called a rape case survivor?" These were words of Judge Nivedita Anil Sharma in 2014, while acquitting a man in a false rape case. Rape is a heinous crime and as it causes deep pain and agony to a woman who is subjected to it, it destroys a man if he is falsely accused of the same. Since 2012, false rape cases have risen in India, posing great threat to justice, equality and fair trial, damaging lives of not only men who are falsely accused but also causing great damage to cause of genuine victims.

India's Sons is a feature length documentary film telling stories of false rape case survivors - men who were falsely accused of rape and after long trial and suffering, were acquitted of the same. It discusses the problem, the reasons and the irreversible consequences.
