Mollywood's MeToo

New abuse allegations have emerged about Kerala’s Malayalam-language film industry.

Rampant abuse and 'mafia' style intimidations: these are the conditions thousands of women working in one of India's film industries allegedly faced for years. Following a damning report into Kerala’s Malayalam-language movie scene, BBC India reporter Sumedha Pal has been talking to actors, directors and producers to understand what's going on, and how the MeToo movement has changed the working environment for women in the wider Indian film industry. Plus, is the Caspian sea actually a sea? Osman Kaytazoğlu from BBC Turkish explains.

Produced by Alice Gioia and Caroline Ferguson.
