The Killing Hour (1982)
A Gandhi question….?
You know the movie that came out in 1982? Well, there’s this one question I am having trouble with from the movie.
Q. At the Dharasana Salt Works, why do the people keep going up to the gate when they know they will be beaten?
I rewatched and rewatched it, but I didn’t see them get beaten…only when those people are being hit for some reason, and than the riot comes and kills the British soldiers.
Do you know what they are asking?
Here’s a link:

fast forward to about 1 hour and 45 minutes.
thank you sooooo much!
It was a symbolic and very real gesture that the people of India would no longer be subject to British rule. They would endure whatever pain and suffering they had to but would do so without retaliating. Recall there was a reporter on the scene and he told the world what was happening. He made the world “see” what was going on.
