Talking about the film, Kanu Behl said: “I have always believed that what is personal is also most often a universal narrative. This film, I have said repeatedly, is personal to me in many ways but it is also about every person who feels hemmed in. Anyone who has ever faced emotional, psychological and sexual repression will recognise in these characters, a little bit of themselves.” The New Boy: Cate Blanchett and Director Warwick Thornton Receive Standing Ovation for The Film At Cannes 2023 (Watch Video).
