A non-fiction drama chronicling the most outrageous political debut in the
largest democracy in the world, ‘An Insignificant Man’ follows Arvind
Kejriwal and his insurgent party as they look to shake up Indian politics
while struggling to keep their own idealism alive. It gives an insider’s
view into Kejriwal’s brand of politics, which has split popular opinion
into two prominent factions. One labels it selfish and anarchic, while the
other insists on seeing it as a major shift in the Indian political
paradigm. With never-before-seen footage, the film offers a unique insight
into the fledgling political party’s battle between survival and extinction
in the largest democracy in the world.
