One of the World's Worst Industrial Disasters Exposed on the Big Screen

20,000 women, men, and children died following the 1984 toxic gas leak at the Union Carbide pesticide plant in Bhopal, India. It was one of the world’s worst industrial disasters and 30 years later the devastating effects of the gas leak are still prevalent in the community and affect the health of thousands of women, men and children. The common features behind many industrial disasters are eerily familiar; cost-cutting, corporate power, poor communities, untrained staff, and management ignoring the early warning signs.
This is the official trailer of the movie ‘Bhopal A Prayer For Rain’ starring for the first time Mischa Barton, Kal Penn and Martin Sheen in an Indian film.
