his is a phenomenal achievement: the feature film debut from British-Indian former documentary maker Sandhya Suri is a punchy, muscular Hindi-language police procedural set in rural north India. Elegantly scripted by Suri, Santosh combines gripping, gritty storytelling with a deft acknowledgment of some of the murkier aspects of modern India: the police corruption and brutality, the baked-in sexism, the caste prejudice and anti-Muslim sentiment. It strikes a tricky balance between perceptive, issue-led film-making and propulsive entertainment.
The movie was this year’s UK submission to the international Oscar category, but due to problems with the censors is yet to be released in India. It follows the journey of the eponymous central character. Santosh, a recently divorced woman played by Shahana Goswami, is offered the position of police officer through a government scheme. It's an opportunity that gives her freedom from her harsh, critical parents and a growing sense of self-worth. Level-headed, serious and diligent, Santosh is instinctively suited to the job. Geeta (Sunita Rajwar, excellent), the veteran female cop brought in to quell the rising tension, immediately spots Santosh's potential and assigns her to the case as her second-in-command when a scandal involving the murder of a Dalit (the lowest caste) girl threatens to ignite local unrest. It is, Santosh soon realises, a dubious honour. Geeta’s slippery charisma and ruthlessness earn the respect of her male colleagues, but her methods are suspect and her motives, in supporting her younger colleague, opaque. Through the quiet intelligence of Goswami’s impressive performance, we grasp, as she does, that a case closed doesn’t necessarily mean that justice has been done.
