The Conspirator

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Plot

In the wake of Abraham Lincoln's assassination, seven men and one woman are arrested and charged with conspiring to kill the President, Vice President, and Secretary of State. The lone woman charged, Mary Surratt (Wright) owns a boarding house where John Wilkes Booth (Toby Kebbell) and others met and planned the simultaneous attacks. Against the ominous back-drop of post-Civil War Washington, newly-minted lawyer, Frederick Aiken (McAvoy), a 28-year-old Union war-hero, reluctantly agrees to defend Surratt before a military tribunal.
.
Aiken is at first very reluctant to take the case and believes his client is guilty. However, he uncovers evidence of her innocence and conducts a spirited defense. He realizes his client is being used as bait and hostage in order to capture the only conspirator to have escaped a massive manhunt, her own son, John (Johnny Simmons). As the nation turns against her, Surratt is forced to rely on Aiken to uncover the truth and save her life. In the end, Mary Surratt is found guilty and hanged

Plot
 
Middle aged Chinu Nandy has been playing bit parts in movies for several decades. Over the course of time, Chinu has learned to accept his fate, hoping that one day he could add as much flavor to a movie as dry red chillies would to a curry. Meanwhile, a world renowned Bengali director named Joy Sundar Sen has been the centre of media attention due to having recently returned from the Berlin film festival. He is also keen to direct a movie alongside an Australian producer named Isabella whom he recently met in Berlin. In search of a leading man, Joy finds Chinu and decides to cast him despite the fact that Chinu has only had prior experience as an "extra". Chinu's humble stance on life slowly begins to rub off on those around him with surprising results. In addition, Chinu himself learns to become more assertive as the film ends with him relating the success of his latest film role to his wife.
