New Delhi, January 12
Critically-acclaimed filmmaker Gurvinder Singh, who is making a crowd-funded documentary on the ongoing farmers' agitation titled 'Trolley Times', using the newspaper as the context and fulcrum to explore the protest, says that as an artist, the most striking aspect of the agitation has been 'fearlessness'.
"We have not seen this kind of fortitude to be able to say anything against the government. This agitation seems to have given the people a platform to vent their anger and expression against the state. Right from extremely artistically refined ways to the most crude ones—one sees a full range."
