+A courageous low-budget feature by Saghir
+Ahmed who teaches script writing at the FTII.
+The film addresses questions of rural
+oppression in ways markedly different from its
+usual treatment in Oriya cinema (cf.
+Manmohan Mahapatra). A joint family is
+partially fragmented when the patriarch’s only
+son (Mishra), a political activist, has to spend
+much of his time avoiding the police. The
+family informally adopts two children and is
+then blamed when one of them commits
+suicide while escaping from Panchanan
+(Ghosh), the children’s oppressive legal
+guardian. The children’s mostly absent
+journalist father (Mahapatra) causes the activist
+to be arrested, but eventually all the players of
+the drama come together. The director’s
+daughter Amrita Ahmed played one of the two
+children.
