Fahrenheit 451 is a film by legendary French filmmaker Francois Truffaut. This film is based on a novel of the same name by American writer Ray Bradbury. The events of the film unfold in a totalitarian society of the future, where people are punished for reading books in order to suppress free thought and rebellion.

This 1966 film is more relevant today than ever, when the ruling class is exercising its powers to curb the democratic space in educational institutions and silence voices of dissent in the society at large.
