IT TAKES A VILLAGE TO KILL A CHILD...
The Indian village of Teetarpur is a quiet, unremarkable place, until one of its children is found dead, hanging from the branch of a Jamun tree.
In the largely Hindu community, suspicion quickly falls on an itinerant Muslim man, Mansoor.
It's up to local policeman Sub-Inspector Ombir Singh to uncover the truth.
With only one assistant officer, and a single working revolver between them, can he bring justice to a grieving father and an angry village?or will the people of Teetarpur demand vengeance instead?
