"Reason" , a documentary in 8 chapters is the latest film by award-winning, internationally acclaimed Indian documentary filmmaker Anand Patwardhan.
(Duration 4 - hrs 20 minutes)
Synopsis
Those who witnessed the scientific spirit fostered by the Enlightenment would scarcely have believed that over 400 years later, Faith would still have an upper hand over Reason.
Today as technologically advanced nations debate the merits of Creationism and Evolution, the developing world falls prey to blind faith and religious war.
Everywhere privatization, the destruction of labor unions and a rush to corner ever-depleting natural resources, has catapulted crony capitalists and their extreme Right wing storm-troopers into power.
With the collapse of egalitarian values, democracy itself is under siege. That we,
the temporarily comfortable, rarely notice, is because an embedded media
controls both information and entertainment. Not only do we see what they want
us to see, we quickly tire of seeing anything that matters.
Reason takes us to a macrocosm - India, the world's largest democracy. Its eight
chapters are a chilling account of how murder and mind control are applied to
systematically dismantle secular democracy in a country which once aspired not
just to Liberty, Egalite and Fraternity, but to lead the post-war world out of its
mindless spiral of violence and greed.
And yet the battle for Reason is not lost. Even as Brahminism (a priest ordained
caste hierarchy that withheld knowledge from the working castes) drapes itself
in the national flag and sends out its hit squads, resistance has not ended. For
every brave rationalist gunned down or driven to suicide, many more take up the
mantle.
Reason is then both a warning and a promise.
FILMMAKER INFO
Anand Patwardhan has been making political documentaries for over four decades pursuing diverse and controversial issues that are at the crux of socio-political life in India. Many of his films despite garnering national and international awards were at one time or another banned by the censors and by state television channels and became the subject of litigation. Anand, who successfully challenged censorship rulings in court, has also been active in movements for communal harmony as well as movements against unjust, unsustainable development, casteism, miltarism and nuclear nationalism.
