Festival Rating

A person who came from the countryside, spends his whole life in front of the door of the LAW waiting to be entered. He comes to the LAW with several pleads; of the peasants who are not paid properly against their production, of a father whose daughter has been raped, of himself for solving the land related problems indicating the wrong paths followed by intellectuals. But the person can never become able to reach the LAW.
Here, 'law' is a metaphor of the total system where the cinema expresses that the system creates consent among people with its ideological state apparatuses which on the other hand strengthens the root of the authority.
