1981 film from Indian director, Adoor Gopalakrishnan, telling the tale of a feudal lord in Kerala. Unni is the lazy, narcissistic head of his family which comprises himself and two siblings. Unable to adapt to the socio-economic changes taking place in early '80s India, he is an anachronism - lost in his own escapist fantasies. As well as being a story about rural Indian life, the film is also an intricately detailed character study of a man out of time.
Malayalam-language drama following the life of a young revolutionary in the southern Indian state of Kerala. The story of Kunjunni (Vishwanathan)'s life in many ways reflects and represents the story of Kerala as a whole. With little input from his parents, Kunjunni falls under the influence of an uncle (Narendra Prasad) who was formerly a disciple of Ghandi but now considers himself a Marxist. Drawn increasingly towards left-wing ideas, Kunjunni eventually participates in violent protest and is thrown in jail. Upon his release he attempts to start a normal family and to reconcile his dreams with the reality around him. Will he succeed?
