DTDV documents the introduction of Vipassana meditation into one of the world’s largest prisons, Tihar Jail in New Delhi. Winner of the San Francisco International Film festivals 1998 Golden Spire Award, the film, through interviews with warden, guards and inmates, explores how Vipassana has transformed the jail and changed lives.

Vipassana meditation is a straightforward, practical technique to dissolve inner tensions, agitations and negativities and lead a more positive, balanced, peaceful life. It is a technique of mental purification through self observation. Vipassana is a universal, non-sectarian technique practised by people of any religion and those of none. Courses are offered freely.
