Bandit Queen (1994) Hindi presented by Hidden Gems

There was a time in the early 1980s when Phoolan Devi, who led a gang of bandits in the desolate ravines of northern India, was as famous as a movie star.  Little girls played with their Devi Dolls, and the media tracked her every move.  “Bandit Queen”, a hard, gripping film, tells her true story.  It premiered at the Cannes Film Festival in 1994 to wide critical acclaim.
