Sinopse
Características

This first comprehensive study of Gopalakrishnans feature films offers a compelling analysis of the issues of guilt, redemption and hope within their socio-historical contexts. The abrupt displacement of Kerala in southern India from a princely feudal state into twentieth-century modernity forms the backdrop to most of his complex narratives about identity, selfhood and otherness, in which innocence is often at stake and characters grapple with their consciences.
