It’s the true story of a Punjabi woman named Kiranjit Ahluwalia who leaves India to marry a London-based guy, only to be badly abused. She ends up in prison for murdering her abusive husband.

Charged with first-degree murder, she is sentenced to life imprisonment, where she befriends her cellmate, a wealthy white woman, from whom she learns English.
Her cellmate is so moved by her story that she asks her stepbrother, a highly respected queen’s counsel, to file her appeal. Her case comes to the notice of a motley group of south Asian social workers running a under funded organization called Southhall Black Sisters. They bring her plight to the attention of the media by organizing rallies to gather public support for her freedom. Based on a true story.

Luther says that “absolutely no man can ever discover or comprehend his wickedness, since it is infinite and eternal.” If sin is such that it infects us in the deepest sense, and we have completely and totally fallen and corrupt natures, then we cannot even know of the gravity of our sin. Indeed, even in not fully understanding our sinfulness, we perpetuate our sin. He continues, that the “knowledge of sin comes only through the Word of God.” If this is true, then the only way that we can truly know our sinful state is the direct revelation of God in the Scriptures.
