It narrates the ordeal, struggles and eventual success of these scientists who believed that India, too, could have its vaccine and not rely on foreign organizations. Moreover, the movie gives students a unique perspective on the challenges and triumphs associated with vaccines and other national developments. The faculty members of the department were also present during the screening.
