Program Note
A powerful documentary about an unprecedented political experiment in India. A group that organizes meetings to criticize government corruption forms a new political party, the Aam Aadmi Party (AAP), and jumps into the election campaign. Their chosen candidate, Arvind Kejriwal, proposes to stop corruption, completely reform utility bills, and decentralize political power, promises he made when he launched the party in 2013. His fight against the Indian National Congress Party, which has held power for the past 60 years, and the rampant corruption to which the people are already accustomed, is not easy. The camera captures this political experiment up close by following Kejriwal and the AAP over their two-year struggle to promote democracy among a people yearning for a new government but holding a deeply rooted mistrust of the state. Through an insider perspective, the camera does not hide the fact that it shares in the yearning for political change. And the efforts captured through this camera lens shines brilliantly between the final dramatic victory and the many moments of frustration. (HONG Soin)
