Twenty-one years in the making, The Frontier Gandhi tells the extraordinary story of Badshah Khan, a unique Muslim peacemaker born into the unimaginable violence of Pashtun warrior society of Pakistan’s North-West Frontier. His achievements were pronounced “a miracle” by Mahatma Gandhi himself, but Badshah Khan raised – in the heart of violence on what is now the Afghan/Pakistan border – a 100,000 strong nonviolent army of men, women, and youngsters that was comprised of Hindus, Muslims, Christians, Parsees, Sikhs, and Buddhists. In partnership with Gandhi he worked for the freedom of India and fought for justice and peace for all humanity. Notable Indian actor Om Puri provides the voice of Khan, who passed away at the ripe old age of 98 in 1988.
