Ajouter à une liste de filmsMrityudand (The Death Sentence) is an Indian Hindi drama film released in 1997. It was directed and produced by Prakash Jha and stars Madhuri Dixit, Shabana Azmi, Ayub Khan, Mohan Agashe and Om Puri.
The film is a commentary on social and gender injustice. As in his other movies, filmmaker Prakash Jha has focussed on the social problems that plague his native state of Bihar, India, and like his other movies this one straddles the boundary between art film and commercial film. The film also boasted of some semi-classical music, tuned by Anand-Milind and Raghunath Seth and worded by Javed Akhtar.
Synopsis
It is set in the fictional village of Bilaspur, Bihar in 1996. The movie starts with the grisly portrayal of a mob killing of two defenceless women, orchestrated by vested interests, and how village power players later evade administrative inquiries into this atrocity. This incident sets the tone for much of the rest of the movie.Acteurs

The area is notorious for its crime rate, with Tezpur Police under the control of local don Sadhu Yadav (Mohan Joshi) and his son Sundar Yadav (Yashpal Sharma). Amit tries to instill honesty and courage in his subordinates, but in vain. Bacha Yadav (Mukesh Tiwari), who is a stooge of Sadhu Yadav visits his hideout, sees an infamous local goon Nunwa taking shelter there. Fearing that arresting him would open the lid on the nexus between Nunwa and the Tezpur Police, he kills Nunwa and misleads Police that he was killed in an encounter. Suspect about the encounter, Amit Kumar summons Bacha Yadav, puts him off duty temporarily and also tries to keep him away from Sadhu Yadav and Sundar Yadav. Anxious that he would be transferred from Tezpur, Bacha Yadav, seeking the help of Sadhu Yadav, visits his home, where he finds out that he is being ditched by Sadhu and vows to settle score with them. Meanwhile, Sundar manhandles a Public Works Department engineer for not heeding to his word during a tendering process. Amit takes notice of the incident and also finds that a girl is missing from her home after being kidnapped by Sundar. Sensing an opportunity, Bacha Yadav urges Amit to give him one more chance, who obliges him. Bacha Yadav tricks Sundar into a factory where Amit and his men are waiting and after a brief scuffle, Sundar is arrested and produced in a local court, where the judge acquits Sundar on the account of lack of evidence against him.

The central figure of the film is represented by a mysterious figure called "Gaja Gamini" (Madhuri Dixit), who inspires, arouses, and confuses the common man. "Gaja Gamini" is the inspiration behind Leonardo da Vinci's (Naseeruddin Shah) 'Mona Lisa', Kalidas' poem "Shakuntala", and a photojournalist named Shahrukh's (Shah Rukh Khan) photographs. The mysterious "Gaja Gamini" appears as four characters, one of them being Sangeeta, a blind girl from Banaras at the beginning of time, who inspires village women (Farida Jalal, Shilpa Shirodkar, and Shabana Aazmi) to revolt against a male-dominated system and carve a niche for women forever. Another character is Shakuntala, who is the subject of Kalidas' poem of the same name. Shakuntala incites jealousy in the women and love in the men around her, charming humans and animals alike in the forests of Kerala. "Gaja Gamini" is also Mona Lisa during the Renaissance, the object of painter Leonardo da Vinci's obsession. Finally, Monika, the most confusing sector of the film, is supposed to represent the woman of the New Millennium. Kamdev, the God of Love (Inder Kumar), walks the earth throughout history, attempting to win the love of "Gaja Gamini".

Le film s'ouvre sur l'incendie d'un village de dalits (intouchables) du Bihar. Un couple, Naurangia (Naseeruddin Shah) et son épouse enceinte Rama (Shabana Azmi) fuit le village en feu et le massacre de ses habitants. Un flashback révèle les évènements qui ont conduit à l'attaque du village. Un nouvel instituteur, aux idées progressistes, avait entrepris de politiser les habitants du village, menaçant ainsi la domination du propriétaire terrien. Il est finalement assassiné par le frère de ce dernier. Naurangia, à la tête d'un groupe de villageois, tue le meurtrier, ce qui conduit en représailles à l'incendie du village. Muni d'une lettre de recommandation, Naurangia et Rama cherchent du travail à Calcutta, sans succès. Ils apprennent que le gouvernement va octroyer une compensation financière aux victimes de l'attaque. Lassés de chercher en vain, ils ne peuvent cependant pas rentrer chez eux, faute d'argent pour payer le voyage. Enfin, on leur propose de faire traverser le Gange, à la nage, à un troupeau de porcs. L'argent gagné leur permettrait de rentrer chez eux, mais la traversée est périlleuse. Lorsque enfin ils atteignent l'autre rive, Rama ne sent plus bouger son enfant. Le film se termine cependant sur une note d'optimisme : Naurangia colle son oreille sur le ventre de sa femme et entend l'enfant bouger.
