Synopsis
Winner of eight Academy Awards®, this epic and acclaimed biographical drama presents major events in the life of Mohandas Gandhi (Ben Kingsley in a career-defining performance), the beloved Indian leader who stood against British rule over his country. After he returns to India from South Africa, lawyer Mohandas Gandhi launches a campaign of protest against Britain's oppressive colonial rule. Dedicated to the concept of non-violent resistance, Gandhi is initially dismissed by English officials, including the influential Lord Irwin (John Gielgud). However, eventually he and his cause become internationally renowned, and his gatherings of passive protest move India towards independence. Please note: this film has a short intermission.

Reviews
"Ben Kingsley's performance as Gandhi, ageing 50 years in three hours is likely to take its place among the cinema's great historic portraits."
