Kusumitar Gappo

Directed by Hrishikesh Mondal

Based on real-life events, the film follows the ups and downs in the career of a gifted female footballer named Kusumita Das. Her rise to fame and her subsequent fall following an injury will be a test of her endurance, and how she survives the ordeal through sheer willpower, resilience and some help from a sports reporter forms the crux of the story.
