The Red Files

Story – Based on the true event of Bantala Case that shook the socio-political notions of 1990’s West Bengal, Kingshuk Dey directed film The Red Files deals with the story in two separate timelines, one strictly follows the events occurred in the 90s and other
follows the life and endeavours of IPS officer Priti Rao, in the present days. Priti
along with Anjan, Imraan, Taniqsha, Arka and others aid tries to re-open the 1990s
Bantala Case File. Each and every case has its own file and some times these files
remain unsolved for several reasons. They stay hidden and isolated from the people
and its nation. Such hidden and confidential files are called the Red Files. The
Bantala Rape Case File is no exception indeed. This issue which took place in 1990,
three women were brutally raped and murdered by people of power in a village called Bantala in West Bengal. Yet, due to an inadequate amount of proof, political pressure and bureaucratic pressure this file also remained suppressed for years and turned into a red file. Priti focuses on re-opening the case to summon proper punishment to the brutal rapists, still existing in the present days without any fear and shame. Will she and her team be able to bring justice to the rape victims after so many years? The Red Files will depict the rest with much thrill and enthusiasm.
