Good News

Good News (17 min)
Assam/India, 2005, Directed by Altaf Mazid

A writer looks for a bit of good news in the days of the Assam Movement (1985-1990), when the youth had sunk to the lowest depths of degradation, and civilized emotions seemed to be wiped completely out of existence. Newspapers had chilling pages of depressing stories and to read them was to be overcome by an even greater feeling of horror and helplessness. Finally, the writer discovers a small piece of news item in a morning paper that gives him hope.
