Malayalam cinema is very special for its unabashed storytelling trait and accepted its content without any limitations all around the world. Be it a film festival or movie marathon, a set of its enthusiasts devote their time to watching such emotion-driving narratives and performances. But what would be said is that even now, some deserving efforts that are to be noteworthy are not able to be seen by the naked eye. Binged would like to describe a must-watch movie from the August release.
The Malayalam movie ‘Prappeda’ (Eng. The Hawk’s Muskin) is an experimental effort that has a trajectory of various genres from satirical black humour to science fiction in nature which is a unique approach in forgetting the conventional way of singular categorization. The flick is directed by debutant Krishnendu Kalesh and features actors like Ketaki Narayan, Neena Kurup, Rajesh Madhavan, Mano Jose, Jayaraman Thulasidas, and Nithin Jose in important roles.
The movie’s way of conceiving the blend of art and science thereby bringing out sensitive topics like black magic, homosexuality, and extra-terrestrial elements gives a green signal for engaging with the world of the last descendants of Earth. The visual beautification and cuts are mind-blowing.
This marvel has been shown for the International Film Festival of Rotterdam and the movie is currently streaming on the Saina Play OTT platform.
