Peacock, the daily bulletin of ESG slipped in a comment about the FTII students protest.
In a review of the Indian Oscar entry Court, Vivek Menezes connects the injustice in the film with the disgraceful treatment of the film students. He writes: ... over the past week, very many people interviewed by us at IFFI expressed grave concern and dismay about random and arbitrary application of serious charges, and routine misuse of the machinery of the state to silence diversity in the arts. Almost everyone we talked to wanted to publicly express disagreement with labeling spirited film students "anti-national", and regreted the heavy-handed exclusion of a few dissenting voices..." Bravo VM! Augusto
