The Dark I Must Not Name

Bhopal could not be understood merely through political, corporate or scientific analysis. Understanding it in terms of the fight between good and evil, the corruption of the bureaucracy or multinationals seemed partial. The film seeks 'Bhopal' in the mourning songs of women, in the ramblings of an old court jester reminiscing the past grandeur of his city, in dead babies preserved in jars in grim hospital corridors, in the children on the street playing a game of "gas gas".... The film attempts to portray the pain and daily rituals of suffering that the city continues to live with.
