Panga

Based on the story of a female Indian Kabbadi player, a contact sport unfamiliar to the Western world but very popular in Southeast Asia, 'Panga' will focus on the successes achieved by this player, who had to overcome a multitude of problems that she was forced to face simply for being a woman within in a patriarchal society and a macho sport. The film will explore the importance of the love and support provided by family when it comes to achieving the goals that one sets in life. 'Panga' is a story of overcoming risks and social struggle, of love and friendship. It is, in short, a story that explores the importance of fighting and making sacrifices in order to achieve your dreams, no matter how many difficulties arise nor how much adversity stands in your way.
