final solution is a 2004 documentary film directed by rakesh sharma concerning the 2002 gujarat riots in which both hindu and muslims were targeted in the state of gujarat by political extremists. in order to rationalize their violence, hindu extremists had made the claim that their actions were in fact a "spontaneous response" to the godhra train burning incident on 27 february 2002. but as the film proceeds with victims continuing to come forward and share their experiences, a more unsettling possibility seems to emerge- that far from being a spontaneous expression of outrage, the anti-muslim violence had been carefully coordinated and planned.
