Article 15 (2019) Crime, Drama

Article 15 is a movie based in the rural heartlands of India, an upright police officer sets out on a crusade against violent caste-based crimes and discrimination. While the film’s story has nothing new to offer, (a new inspector, his morale, he turns everything upside down and sets everything right) the film to my utter amusement had a touch of human emotions, love, humor, etc., which were brilliantly portrayed by the artists.

Especially the bond between the inspector and his little maid, the film portrayed brotherly feelings of the protagonist through that relationship and even though that’s rare in the real world, it sparkled the movie with a topping of sweetness. I also loved the humor in the last dialogue of the movie. Not a new story yet it served its purpose beautifully!
