Batch Of 2020 selected for the International Indian Film Festival Toronto

Anto Philip's first documentary Batch Of 2020 has been selected for the International Indian Film Festival Toronto (IIFFT) this month.

The film will be screened on 10 August with four other Indian regional feature films.

Touted as India’s first graduation documentary, the film highlights key topics that India’s Batch Of 2020 will find value in.

Written and directed by Anto Philip, the documentary was conceived and shot during the lockdown.

The film features educators, employers, entertainers, CEOs and leaders from varied backgrounds such as Armaan Malik, Akash Iyer, Anand Gandhi, Anupama Chopra, Bryden-Parth, Debosmita Majumder, Deepika Padukone, Dhruv Chitgopekar, Faye D'Souza, Hrithik Roshan, Jordindian, Raghava KK, Reba John, Rega Jha, Roshan Abbas and Tanmay Bhat. They share important information and insights about their fields with students and talk about various topics like 'lessons from other batches', 'first year after graduation', 'dropping out' and 'qualities a graduating student must have in 2020'.

Talking about his documentary being selected for the IIFFT, Anto Philip said, "We are grateful to IIFFT who will help spread our message to a global audience and inspire millions to break free from these traditional shackles and cultivate a new mindset for a new dawn that is upon us.”
