The film is based on a true incident of 20th century popularly known as Komagata
Maru incident. The film unveils a poignant chapter in history when a group of
Indian Sikh immigrants aboard a Japanese steamship named Komagata Maru
arrived in Vancouver carrying 376 passengers from India. Canada, enforcing
discriminatory immigration laws, denied entry to most passengers who were of
Indian descent. After two months of legal battles and protests, the ship was forced
to return to India. The incident highlights racial prejudices and immigration policies
of the time, symbolising a struggle for Equality and Justice.
