Synopsis

His triumph changed the world forever.
It took one remarkable man to defeat an empire and free a nation of 350 million people. His goal was freedom. His strategy was peace. His weapon was his humanity. Richard Attenborough's eight Oscar-winning success, tells the story of Gandhi, one of the towering figures of the twentieth century. He began his career as a lawyer and, after years of struggle for his ideals, became a modern day Messiah; through passive resistance he won freedom for India and the end of British rule. His name is synonymous with the way of life that has altered the course of history and continues to inspire millions to this day. Gandhi is a feast of visual splendour, outstanding performances and human drama. Filmed on location in India, this three hour saga stars Ben Kingsley, Candice Bergen, Edward Fox, John Mills, Martin Sheen, and Ian Charleston. It won Academy Awards for Best Picture of 1982 and for best Actor, Director, Screenplay, Cinematography, Film Editing, Art and Set Design and Costume Design.
