Storyline
Plot Summary |
'Provoked' is the true story of Kiranjit Ahluwalia, a Punjabi woman who moved to London after marrying Deepak Ahluwalia. Her husband seemed caring at first, then started to beat her up. He started drinking a lot and sleeping around with other women. He also subjected her to spousal rape. After 10 years and two children with him, out of fear she sets him on fire while he is sleeping, two hours after another scene of domestic violence. He succumbs to the injuries and she is sentenced to life in prison for premeditated murder. However, the Southall Black Sisters, an NGO organization which fights against domestic violence, helps her get justice. After spending 3 1/2 years in jail, she is set free and reunited with her two children. Written by A. Bose |
