+Existential fable designed to show off
+Mohanlal’s acting skills. He plays both a parttime
+theyyam dancer and travelling salesman
+as well as his guilt-ridden son. The son
+eventually ‘ascends’ into insanity. The film
+works with numerous allusions to both biblical
+and folk sources as it investigates the meaning
+of fatherhood, the youth’s main problem.
+Noted for George’s camerawork and for
+Mohanlal’s repeated efforts to extend his
+performative abilities to dance (cf. also
+Kamalathalam, 1992).
