Writing With Fire is a documentary that follows three journalists from Khabar Lahariya, India's only newspaper run entirely by Dalit women. We chat with directors Rintu Thomas and Sushmit Gosh about how they chose the film's main subjects, the difficulties and often dangers of following them as they cover the stories that no one else is telling, and what they've learned along the way. And we wouldn't be Bitch Talk if we didn't discuss what it was like to be a man watching these women get mansplained and treated as second class citizens. Through the power of social media and their youtube page, these women are making a difference, one story at a time. We hope you support this film, and it inspires you to realize your ability to create change.
