Program Note
Manas, who lost his job as a factory manager eight months ago, becomes a courier for the food delivery app Zwigato. The goal is to make ten deliveries a day. Only then he can receive incentives, and his wife doesn’t have to work as a cleaner at the mall. Zwigato satirizes a society in which the caste system still exists, where people are ruled by meritocracy, star ratings, and the digital system. The scenes of cleaners from lower caste trying to get a job, Manas grappling with the world of ratings and incentives and a fellow courier who is unable to make a delivery inside a temple due to his social identity, simultaneously bring laughter and sadness. As in her directorial debut Firaaq (2008) and other works in which she has starred, Nandita Das dreams of a world where people are respected despite their religion, politics and caste identity.
