+Echoing aspects of Gopalakrishnan’s
+Elippathayam (1981), Vasudevan Nair’s script
+tells of the decline of a family of former Nair
+rent collectors as various members give way to
+greed and other weaknesses. The dramatic
+trigger is provided by a government
+compensation payment for confiscated forest
+lands, and the rapacious members of the family
+go to extraordinary lengths to appropriate as
+much compensation money as they can get by
+means both fair and foul. The story is told
+mainly through the eyes of a poor village lad,
+Keshu, returning from the city. The wellknown
+director, B. Menon, can here be seen as
+an actor.
