Premiere screening of the first documentary on the Royal Indian Navy Mutiny of 1946. Using forgotten footage sourced from the Imperial War Museum and Cambridge University in the UK and press clippings from India and Pakistan, and juxtaposing this material with expert narrations of this story of valour. The Last Push reconstructs the mutiny by Royal Indian Navy ratings, which shook the British Raj in its sunset months and hastened its decision to leave India to Indians.
