On December 2, 1984, the Union Carbide pesticide plant in Bhopal, India leaked poisonous methyl isocyanate gas that killed fifteen thousand people. Hundreds of thousands more were permanently maimed. Bhopal remains the world’s worst chemical industry disaster.

Twenty years later, the survivors and their families were being re-victimized by the deliberate thwarting of scientific and medical studies concerning the disaster.

Beautiful Bhopal, once known as the “City of Mosques” is a sad, disgraceful testament to the absence of environmental and human justice. Exploring charges of corruption, Bhopal: The Search for Justice follows Raajkumar Keswani, the local journalist whose prediction of disaster proved prophetic. Set against a rich visual tapestry, Keswani travels through the Indian bastiis where the poorest victims live, and to the offices of frustrated doctors and scientists. Finally he makes his first trip to North America in search of answers.
