Sangini

Sangini, founded by Betu Singh in Delhi, tells the stories of people who fled their families and sought sanctuary at Sangini, a shelter for lesbian, bi and trans-identified people in Delhi. Fleeing family imposed restrictions, violence and pressure to get married – a young woman, a trans man, and a lesbian couple recount their stories of flight and resilience, their struggle to assert their civil rights and independence, and their hopes for the future. Dedicated to Betu Singh, who passed away on Oct. 4, 2013, and to her partner, Maya Shankar.
