The World Before Her

 

 

This documentary, filmed in India, contrasts the lives of two young Hindu women. One is hoping to win the very glamorous Miss India title, while the other is a drill sergeant traning Indian girls to fight against Western culture and Islam. Vying for the title includes a month-long training session in posture, and how to work the runway. The more militant woman is at odds with her father who insists that, as a woman, it is her duty to marry and have children.
