Symbolic tale set in a tribal village at the foot of
the Banasuran Mountains in Kerala. Religious
superstition and ignorance maintain stasis in
the village. A relentlessly intelligent boy
escapes its oppressive confines and later
returns, determined to bring enlightenment to
the village. The event is represented in terms of
a torchlight procession up the forbidding, godguarded
mountains shielding the villagers from
the ‘outside’.
This film won the National Film Award for Best Regional Film and Suresh won the Award for Best Child Artist.
