Nepalilainen elokuva ’Basanta’ kertoo maaseudulla asuvasta yksinkertaisesta miehestä. Elokuva kertoo päähenkilön Basanta B.K:n elämäntarinan ja monista hänen elinaikansa yhteiskuntajärjestelmän hyvistä ja huonoista puolista.

Dalit perheeseen syntynyt Basanta pärjää keskinkertaisesti opinnoissaan, mutta hän on pienestä pitäen loistanut harrastuksissaan. Vahvana runojen ja laulujen kirjoittajana, Basanta unelmoi kirjoittajan ammatista.

Basantan kautta elokuva inspiroi kapinaan, heräämiseen ja kollektiiviseen taisteluun yhteiskunnassa vallitsevaa kastijärjestelmää, luokka- ja koulutuseroja sekä sukupuolten välistä eriarvoisuutta vastaan.
