Waves of revolution

Patwardhan, Anand

Waves of revolution videorecording editor & director, Anand Patwardhan , India. - Mumbai Anand Patwardhan c2011 - 1 videodiscs (ca. 30 min.) sd., col. 4 3/4 in

Originally released theatrically in 2009

This is Anand Patwardhan’s first ever documentary. Waves of Revolution documents the Bihar movement led by the veteran Gandhian Socialist Jayaprakash Narain (JP) with students and peasants struggles to overcome years of corruption and state-sponsored repression. T s a traditional B&W 30min documentary where we get to know the JP Movement in Bihar and how it snowballed into a National movement before Emergency was imposed in 1975. Anand who was just 25 when he made this movie in 1975. He edited this movie in secrecy and with whatever equipments he had at that time. It doesn’t have the best quality and sound is hard to hear in couple of scenes but Anand’s Doordarshan style narration of the events help. A decent documentary that introduced me to something I had not learnt in school history text books and wants me to know more about JP and his work.








In Hindi with English subtitles.
