Lacchi

Lacchi, marginalized by her family, endured hardship and

marital abuse while striving to secure a brighter future for her

daughter, Sita. Determined to shape Sita's destiny despite societal

challenges, Lacchi remained resolute. Tragedy struck when Sita

vanished unexpectedly, leaving Lacchi shattered. Amid her

anguish, a police investigation sought answers to pressing

questions:

* Was poverty a catalyst?

* Were religious beliefs a factor?

* Did Lacchi's alleged immorality play a role?

* Did Sita's father harbor culpability?

The investigation delved deep into these aspects, trying to uncover

the truth behind Sita's disappearance.

Director's Note: Over the past three years, approximately three

million or more children have gone missing in India. Among these

children, about 71% are girls, making it one of the largest

contributors to the country's worst crimes. While women are

becoming victims of domestic violence on one side, on the other

side, girl children are going missing. This poses a significant

challenge to the Department of Home, while society watches with

helplessness. The missing children are victims, how many children

have been found, how many have fallen victim to death... The effort

to find answers to all these questions is - Lacchi.
