In accordance with the Independence day celebrations College Union Advithiya conducted a Film Screening on August 12, 2022 @ College auditorium, MTTC
'Newton', a political satire and an Oscar entrant, effectively portrays the loopholes that are persisting in the dysfunctional democratic system.
It is a hard hitting satirical dark comedy on the election system and the plight of the backward classes in our country !! Newton Kumar( he himself got that changed from Nutan Kumar๐ ) tries his best to conduct free and fair voting despite the odds stacked against him. The difficulties and challenges that Newton faces to get 76 voters in a remote village in a jungle in Chattisgarh , in the naxal controlled areas is what the movie is all about . The first half is breezily funny and despite being a dark comedy , one enjoys every single moment of it till the interval !! The second half is a bit slower than the first half , but with its excellent script and performances it makes for an enjoyable watch.
The movie leaves some thought provoking points for the audiences. It can discerned that we should always acknowledge the prudence of an honest and dutiful person. Besides, those who are bereft of the light of education are easily manipulated during electoral campaigns. To cut it short, it’s a dark comedy embellished with a discretion for the society.
