The film is a portrait of social reformer B.R. Ambedkar, documenting his life from 1901 to 1956. It explores his work as a reformer, with his personal life receiving less attention. Despite being the first graduate of his community, Ambedkar initially focuses on his studies, but his interactions with Afro-Americans and advocates for human rights in the US inspire him to become a reformer. In India, Ambedkar battles against upper-caste Hindus, clashing with Mahatma Gandhi, yet Gandhi admires him and recommends him as the first Law Minister. The film concludes with Ambedkar's decision to renounce Hinduism and adopt Buddhism, offering millions of untouchables a new religion and a path to dignity, compassion, and equality.

Mahatma Gandhi's unyielding pursuit of equality and justice for India's oppressed communities culminates in the creation of the country's guiding Constitution.
