Burning India, a film about the growing Hindu extremism in India and the ridicule of more than 200 million Muslims, has opened India's pool to the world.
The film shows how the Modi government is engrossed in trying to undermine India's secular roots, using good tactics by the Indian government to promote Hindutva in a secular state and make the Muslim population second class citizens.
