Through a brief window of 24 hours ‘Chulo, Choli ra Banduk’ looks into the current
conflict in Nepal and the women behind the frontline. It explores some of the
losses and sacrifices that women experienced as a Maoist party cadre and the
reasons why many women join the Maoist party. ‘Chulo, Choli ra Banduk’ is a
portrait of women who have been fighting in the ten years of Nepal’s People’s
war."
