Synopsis: Laxmi Agarwal, a human rights activist and a survivor of acid violence, gazes back at us, as we contemplate together, the meaning of memory and loss. The Newborns attempts to provide a lens to the survivors of acid violence, to look forward and gaze back. They take us through the ennui of their domestic and public spaces in a nameless dystopian city, its factories, houses and motels, and its promises, never honored. The documentary apart from being extremely poetic shows us the internal dialogue of these survivors interspersed with extremely mundane conversations. Made in collaboration with Stop Acid Attacks, this film is extremely restrained and manages to escape all narrative clichés.
