Chittagong

Running time: 105 mins

Ordinary boys, extraordinary triumph. Set in British-occupied India of the 1930s, Chittagong is a true story about an unassuming fourteen-year-old boy, Jhunku, finding his place amongst the rampage. On the path to attend Oxford, he is betrayed by the man who is helping him and is left with the tormenting ridicule of his peers. Without thought, he joins the rebellion to prove his loyalty to the others, as well as himself. With a disorganized and untrained army of schoolboys and their leader, Masterda, they lead India to its first defeat against the British army. As the war unravels, Jhunku is forced to brave his uncertainty and battle hopeless odds. But will he be able to lead them to triumph and a victory? - Kristy Yip
