In 2019 I said this of ARTICLE 15, another Indian masterpiece :
"Every single moment of this film is powerful"
The same applies to 12TH FAIL. No wonder it won Best Film, Best Director, Best Screenplay, Best Actor, and Best Editing at the Indian FILMFARE awards (the "Oscar"-equivalent awards for Hindi-language films).
If you have a heart you cannot but shed a tear multiple times throughout this film - it addresses poverty, casual crime, the lack of jobs, the class system, prejudice, hopelessness, hope, and, ultimately, the beauty of humanity when it is given a chance.
I said of ARTICLE 15 that every Indian person should watch it ! Well, make it a double : every Indian person should watch 12th FAIL too.
Like Article 15, 12th FAIL is cinema at its absolute best, and from the 9.0 rating on IMDB, it looks like thousands across the World think so too.
Fantastic - Fantastic - Fantastic !
