+A relentless melodrama told in flashback as the
+saintly landlord Malaichami (Ganesan) lies
+dying. Beset by a shrewish wife, Ponnatha
+(Vadivukkarasi), who cannot cook and who
+was pregnant by another man (Sathyaraj) when
+she married the hero, Malaichami falls in love
+with a fisherman’s young daughter, Kuyil
+(Radha). She kills Ponnatha’s lover and goes to
+jail, emerging under police escort to meet a
+dying Malaichami, who clings to life until she
+returns. A second tragic love story involves
+Malaichami’s evil son-in-law who is a rapist
+and a murderer. The ‘matter of honour’ that the
+title suggests was however Bharathirajaa’s first
+film with Ganesan, and it opens with a
+documentary homage to the star.
