The ‘Right’ Glass (TRG) reminds every one of the inviolable human rights that each and every child is born with and the responsibility that each of us, as a member of family, community and society has in ensuring that no child is denied his or her basic rights.
Director Biswanath who hails from Jeypore (Odisha) says, “Child labour is one among the many major issues related to Child Rights and happens to be the one widely prevailing. But more than the issue, it’s everyone’s ignorance towards the problem, which worsens this problem. ‘The ‘Right’ Glass’ is an attempt in making everyone realize this harsh reality of our society.
TRG being our first ad-film and also our first silent film, we are overwhelmed with the kind of response/recognition it has received so far. It’s an honor for me, for all the cast and crew members of TRG, team members of We4You (Producer) and BnR Films to represent India/Asia in 23 International Film Festivals outside India. Afghanistan Human Rights Film Festival-Kabul, PLZ International Film Festival-Paris, Sciuridae International Film Festival-USA and Samawa Cinema-Iraq are even more special to us since in these festivals, TRG was the only film from India to get screened. But more than the awards and festivals, it’s the love from audience, critics, fans from all over the world that has inspired us to keep making such socially-relevant films with global appeal. Now with the YouTube release of this film, we hope the message of the film will reach to an even bigger audience base. With this, we do hope to create a positive impact on the society.”
Sunglasses prevents us from sun rays. Likewise, “The ‘Right’ Glass” prevents us from seeing/realizing the most critical right of children: Right to Education.
