About the event
Yavanika (1982)
By K.G. George / 147/ Malayalam with Eng subs
Set within a traveling drama troupe, the film begins with the mysterious disappearance of tabla player Ayyappan. As the police investigation unfolds, buried tensions, resentments, and uncomfortable truths about the troupe and its members slowly come to the surface.
Widely regarded as one of the finest films in Malayalam cinema, Yavanika is a masterful blend of psychological drama and investigative thriller. With remarkable performances and an atmosphere thick with unease, the film remains one of the most incisive ensemble dramas in Indian cinema.
