| 12 | Bleak but commercially successful melodrama |
| 13 | about the breakdown of a poor Christian |
| 14 | family. Annie’s (Madhavi) husband (Murali) is |
| 15 | killed and she has leukaemia. Assisted by a |
| 16 | concerned priest, Father Vattappara (Venu), she |
| 17 | tries to get her four children adopted into |
| 18 | different homes before she dies. The |
| 19 | relentlessly manipulative story is interesting in |
| 20 | its depiction of the Church and its role in the |
| 21 | life of Kerala’s large Christian community. The |
| 22 | film was also made in Telugu (Mathru Devo |
| 23 | Bhava, 1993). |
