A Film About Mohandas Gandhi's Nonviolent Struggle to Free India from the British

Gandhi - this 1982 biographical film by Richard Attenborough is based on the life of Mohandas Gandhi, who led the nonviolent resistance movement against British colonial rule in India. It is a classic and one of the best researched documentaries.  Gandhi was arguably the foremost expert on how to wage nonviolent social transformation. While the film does not illustrate everything a user of nonviolent struggle needs to know, it covers many basics. It can profitably be viewed many times, and study guides can be found online. It's available on many sites: e.g., Amazon Prime, Net-Flix, YouTube.
