As more young couples reject arranged marriages in modern India, Unreported World investigates a wave of violence that's left hundreds dead across the country's northwest states.
Reporter Annie Kelly and director Katherine Churcher reveal that, despite Indian law giving everyone the right to marry who they want, increasing numbers of young couples are facing death at the hands of their own families for defying centuries of tradition.
"Another eye-opening documentary from this investigative series."
- Daily Telegraph
"A shocking first-hand account of a generation struggling to break away from old customs."
