Modern Educayshun (2015) is a short film by Neel Kolhatkar. The film is a satirical attack on political correctness.
- Modern Educayshun is set in a small advanced math class at some university. A new student (Kolhatkar) arrives in class and is shocked at what is happening. Instead of seeing math as a logical and fact-based subject, in this class it's all based on feelings and political correctness. Student grades are based not on whether or not they got the correct answer...and they are awarded bonus points for how many hardships they face and they lose points based on their privilege! It's all completely insane ... and very funny.[1]
