Accused revolves around the story of a celebrated doctor in London whose carefully constructed life begins to go off track after she is accused of sexual misconduct. As scrutiny intensifies and public opinion hardens, the psychological thriller explores the relationship strains and how quickly perception can take over when certainty goes for a toss. Centred on an accused female, it is a story of one woman’s word against another.
Running on the lines of power, perception, and moral ambiguity, the movie is shot from an intimate and deeply human lens. Directed by Anubhuti Kashyap and penned by Sima Agarwal and Yash Keswani, the film is driven by restraint and nuance rather than easy answers. As shared by the makers, “It is a kind of story that stays with you because it refuses to simplify human behaviour or moral conflict.” With restraint, empathy, and courage, Accused is a meaningful, emotionally resonating film that taps into truth, belief, and the personal consequences of an accusation. So, buckle up and get ready to witness a one-of-a-kind story that streams exclusively on Netflix from 27 February.
