Spoiler-Free Synopsis

Based on the text of Heiner Müller's Hamletmachine, this video play manifests the rise of Hindu fundamentalism in India, which reached a nadir with the frenzied violence of fanatics who destroyed the 16th century Babri Masjid in December of 1992. The growing unrest that followed this destruction provided the extremists with an opportunity to attack and pillage the shanty- towns of the minority Muslim population in a clear case of land grab in Mumbai. Overnight slum colonies were burnt to cinders. The railway stations were filled with Muslims trying to catch any train that might take them away to the safety of their villages.
