Pink (2016)

Three female roommates in India face threats and intimidation from a group of men who attempted to assault them. Every aspect of their lives becomes more difficult -- simply because one of them fought back rather than succumbing. They catch a break when their neighbor, a retired lawyer, decides to fight their corner.

Although rather ham-fisted at times, this is a generally effective film with a clear message that women shouldn’t be punished because men refuse to respect boundaries. My one issue is that the helpful lawyer didn’t need to be so dang weird.
