"If the situation in the country does not improve, my life is worthless." Rising Star Entertainment Ltd. has released the US trailer for a drama from India titled The Gandhi Murder, also known as Gandhi: The Conspiracy or Solar Eclipse: Depth of Darkness (which is a hugely different title but perhaps it works better in India than it does elsewhere). This "conspiracy theory period movie" is based on true events, that led to the eventual assassination of Gandhi. The movie portrays a violent India, at the backdrop of a non-violent Gandhi, and hard-line fanatic mind-sets beginning to grow roots in an India divided on the basis of religion. The feature is a story of three police officers in different parts of India, who, well aware of the intelligence that Gandhi's life is under threat, must take key decisions that would eventually either save the Mahatma, or the country. This stars Jesus Sans, Stephen Lang, Luke Pasqualino, Gregory Schwabe, Om Puri, and Vinnie Jones. This looks like a fascinating, if not a little weird, take on the death of Mahatma Gandhi.

Rising Star Ent. will release The Gandhi Murder in select US theaters starting January 30th, 2019 next month. Anyone?
