July 31: “Yes Madam, Sir” Opens in NYC at DocuWeeks




Hot on the heels of ‘Slumdog Millionaire’ comes Yes Madam, Sir, the inspiring non-fiction feature film by award-winning Australian filmmaker, Megan Doneman, on the life story of India’s most controversial revolutionary, Kiran Bedi. Narrated by Academy Award© winner Helen Mirren, and filmed over six years, Yes Madam, Sir has been scooping the awards and garnering rave reviews during its run on the worldwide film festival circuit.  Packed with heart, Yes Madam, Sir is a roller coaster ride of the triumph and frustration, fame and infamy, comedy and tragedy, passion and pain of a sole leader, and a searing insight into a lawmaker who becomes a law unto herself.

See Yes Madam, Sir at the IFC during DocuWeeks!
