A night of Knowing Nothing

In A night of knowing nothing, nostalgic black and white grainy images of student protests and state oppression linger on the screen. In between socialist chants, a defeaning silence underscores the reading of unsent love letters by L, a student whose lover leaves her to witness the uprise alone, while failing to stand up to his parents who forbid their love due to them belonging to different social classes.
