The World Before Her is a Canadian documentary film, released in 2012. Written and directed by Nisha Pahuja, the film explores the complex and conflicting environment for young girls in India by profiling two young women participating in two very different types of training camp — Ruhi Singh , who aspires to become Miss India, and Prachi Trivedi, a Hindu nationalist with the Durga Vahini.[1]
The film was nominated for an Emmy for Outstanding Coverage of a Current News Story in 2014. [2] It also won the awards for Best Canadian Feature at the 2012 Hot Docs Canadian International Documentary Festival and Best Documentary Feature at the 2012 Tribeca Film Festival, and was a nominee for Best Feature Length Documentary at the 1st Canadian Screen Awards.
On June 6, 2014, the film released to widespread critical acclaim in India, the country it depicts, with the help of filmmaker Anurag Kashyap. Critics called it "the most important film of the year".[3][4]
