Saturday 14th February 1pm

Nepal has been transformed in less than a decade from a royal kingdom to a democracy where Maoists are in the majority. Over three years Bridgham follows the lives of six women through these changes, from soldier to grieving mother, from monarchist to activist.

Stephen Holden, New York Times

“Balanced, moving and comprehensive... shows how circumstances can radicalise even the most middle-of-the-road people.”
