INDIA | Actresses speaking out against sexual assault
Reporter Sahar Zand and director Alicia Arce are in Bollywood to investigate how the #MeToo campaign has taken off in India's film industry. The team talk to some of the country's top actresses who are speaking out against assault, sexual harassment and rape.
In a country where attitudes to women are changing but where many people still hold conservative views about the role of women, and where being a victim of sexual assault is often regarded as shameful, can the #MeToo movement really gain momentum?
