Documentary - "Punjab's Forgotten Women" is a glimpse of the shattered lives of women and children left alone in a patriarchal society that considers them pariah after their husband’s death due to AIDS. It’s the story of how they cope after a disease about which they knew nothing snatched away their family, their social status and their means of survival. Most of these women lived protected lives, looking after their homes while their husbands brought food for the table. Most of them were illiterate. Most of them had also contracted HIV and passed it on unknowingly to their children.
