Synopsis

Chaityabhumi, where Dr. B. R. Ambedkar’s last rites were held, holds vital significance for the Dalit community. This musical film captures the December 6 commemoration, witnessing how the community honours the day and the political relevance it holds for their identity in contemporary India.

Our take

A thought-provoking meditation on Dalit resistance, memory, and belonging, Chaityabhumi is a moving record of Dr. B. R. Ambedkar’s inspiring legacy. Observational in style, the documentary tenderly places the community’s pride and joy at the center of its cultural and political expression.
