Description
A turbulent newsroom drama intimately chronicling the working days of broadcast journalist Ravish Kumar as he navigates a spiralling world of truth and disinformation.
This powerful documentary on Indian television news carries many messages for the way we look at global broadcast news. It highlights that news doesn’t just report; it can also be a mirror that distorts reality, misleading and misrepresenting facts for viewers.
Indian TV journalist Ravish Kumar presents a nightly show on NDTV in Delhi. Famous for his unflinching take-downs of the ruling establishment during his long-running prime-time news hour, he is in trouble for not following the government line. Receiving threatening phone calls and death threats, he is under constant police protection. When the broadcasts start to be jammed and audiences fall, can the station survive?
