New World View: India
In a suburb of Mumbai, the police are given the task of paralysing the criminal network of an unscrupulous slumlord. No easy feat for the bona fide police newcomer Adi, who has also to get used to the tough ways of his superiors. After a frantic chase through the monsoon-flooded streets comes an important moment of truth. With his finger on the trigger of a gun, the young police officer hesitates. What are the consequences if he shoots? And if he doesn’t shoot? Adi lives through three variations of reality. But the more he wants to do the right thing, the more new problems arise… MONSOON SHOOTOUT is an elegant film noir thriller in a setting as gloomy as it is realistic.
