Event Description : School of Arts and Aesthetics, Jawaharlal Nehru University Presents "The Factory" documentary film by Rahul Roy.
Screening will be followed by a Discussion with the Director.
Synopsis: 147 workers of India’s biggest automobile manufacturing company Maruti Suzuki are on trial for the murder of a senior manager and 2500 workers dismissed. It has been two and a half years and the case drags on. Their bail application has been rejected by the courts. On each hearing they are led to the court room by the police while families line up to catch a glimpse. The defense lawyers plan their strategy in the court canteen. Justice seems a dim hope. The film follows the fate of the under trial workers, families and dismissed workers to investigate the underbelly of industrial conflict and the elusive nature of justice.
About the Director: Rahul Roy’s films have travelled across the globe to various documentary film festivals and have won several prestigious awards. His films explore the themes of masculinity and gender relations against the larger background of communalism, labour, class identities and urban spaces. Besides film making Roy has been researching and writing on masculinities. His graphic book on masculinities titled ‘A Little Book on Men’ was recently published by Yoda Press.
