The film is a powerful, moving documentation of life in an Indian village plagued with gender-based discrimination, child marriage and rampant denial of education to young girls. <br><br>  When some volunteers decided to do an eleven-day-theatre workshop in Motipura, a small corner of Gujarat, they were probably unaware of the sheer force of the rejection and rebellion against these malpractices that they were about to unearth in this part of the country.  

In a society where girls are married off right when they hit puberty, while their male counterparts are still allowed a chance at education, this workshop allowed forty children in the village to speak openly, even if for a brief period, about the things they truly desire.  <br><br> 

All the voices in the narrative make pertinent comments about the location of women in society and the absolute importance of education in allowing them social mobility. It presents to you a fight which is passionate, raw and completely undaunted in its intentions to keep pushing forth. The one thing that keeps Lakoti Party from being all that it could have been is the lack of stability in its sounds and visuals. It tells a beautiful, compelling story, but loses crucial points on the technical front employed in presenting it to the viewer.
