India’s official entry to 2016 Oscars. The film is an interesting satire on how our legal system functions and how the innocent sometimes is made to suffer. The film starts with a social activist trying to create awareness through his songs. He gets arrested for abetting the suicide of a sewage worker. While, the activist has not done anything wrong and the sewage worker had died due to toxic gases; the legal system ensures that he is locked without a bail. The entire court room drama beautifully traces the life of people involved and how their real-life characters are different from the role that they play in the court. I particularly liked the scene where the judge postpones a case because the lady involved has come to court dressed in a sleeveless salwar. There are many such brilliant moments that subtly makes us realise how some draconian laws make life difficult for the common man. While there are many good things about the film, it is the painstaking pace that makes it uninteresting at times. You need a lot of patience to watch this film and I don’t understand why the director decided to choose the art-house route when the film could have been made into a gripping tale that could have reached a larger audience. Today’s audience no longer relish such movies. The best Indian film…I doubt. There were better movies.
