Wikipedia article
'Quota' is a 2020 Indian Tamil-language film directed by P. Amudhavanan, produced by Team A Ventures, and starring Chella, Saji Subarna, Naresh Madeswar, Bhavass, and Niharika. The film tells the story of two underprivileged children who struggle to achieve their dreams.
Plot
The plot revolves around a talented child from a tribal hamlet who yearns to become a gymnast. But, his economic condition and identity are a huge deterrent to his dream. Though the film begins with a tribute to the tribal freedom fighter and leader Birsa Munda, it does not focus on a particular caste or tribe. The spotlight is primarily on how children from underprivileged backgrounds continue to struggle to achieve their dreams, when it shouldnt be so. Why cant every talented child get his/her due?
It relates the situation faced by an ambitious, loyal and happy family in their daily walks of financially uncontrollable lifestyle. Adding much to the movement of the story, the pinching of the boys with an acute sense of humour lifts it to a different level. The difference in opportunities, opinions, judgements, reservations between the rich and poor forces him to challenge his talent which results in attaining the prejudice with his determination and hard work. The plot moves the experience with satire, more of pun, fun and frolic of its kind.
