Black Friday is a gripping drama on police investigations into the series of bomb blasts that rocked Mumbai in 1993, killing 257. Remarkably, although a film on the underworld, it does not glorify violence, but explores the bombers' alienation. Kashyap shows how the Mumbai riots of 1992/93, which killed 1,500 (the majority Muslims), led to the retaliatory bombings. (Karlovy Vary International Film Festival)
