Delhi Crime

Set in the immediate aftermath of an appalling, notorious sexual assault on a New Delhi bus, Delhi Crime follows the efforts of police officers working under enormous public pressure and with few resources other than their own ingenuity to find and arrest the suspects. At once a visceral police procedural, a tense character-driven drama, and a sweeping, nuanced portrait of India’s bustling capital, Delhi Crime is never burdened by the tropes of any of these genres: it tells its own story on its own terms, horrifying and captivating in equal measure.

Ghoul

In the dystopian India of the miniseries Ghoul, Muslims and other groups live under the heel of a hyperviolent state. Young security officer Nidu is posted to an underground interrogation facility, shut in with a small band of torturers and ragged prisoners. Then a strange, ancient force arrives among them, stirring the jailers' dark terrors, hunting them through the concrete maze. Not for the faint of heart, Ghoul crafts a riveting series from the all-too-real horrors of state violence, terrorism, and atrocity.
