Film Review: ‘The Least of These’ film on Graham Staines

Film preview 
 
The Least of These: The Graham Staines Story comes 20 years after the Australian missionary was burnt to death along with his sons by members of the Hindu fundamentalist organisation Bajrang Dal in Orissa. Aneesh Daniel’s film will be out in India on March 1, a month after its Stateside release. The English-language film stars Stephen Baldwin as Graham Staines, Shari Rigby as his wife, Gladys, Sharman Joshi as a journalist and Prakash Belawadi as a newspaper editor.
On January 23, 1999, Staines and his two sons, aged 10 and six, died after a vehicle they had camped in for the night was set ablaze in Odisha’s Keonjhar district.
