Listen "Trial of The Black Messiah: New Age Political Cinema and The Politics Behind It "
Episode Synopsis
Our second episode is a rundown of political cinema from 2020 and the last few years, interpreting their impact, criticisms, and the behind-the-scenes politics of it all. Be it in India or overseas, politics and cinema have gone hand-in-hand for a long time. However, the nature of this political cinema obviously differs between perspectives. Other than the radically charged stories that undo the "history of the oppressed" and other than satires calling out the oppressors, the privileged have often ended up sugarcoating hard truths or suffered from the "saviour complex".
As always, the episode is spoiler-free and we delve into a few general plot points of the films.
