PAPILIO BUDHA
Venue : panchajanyam international film fest chittur
story takes place in western ghats where a group of dalits conquer govt land in meppara in waynad and protests for their rights to have land, education and a good life.
film starts with shankaran (sreekumar of marimayam fame) trying to catch diff species of butterflies for a foriegner and he hopes that the foriegner will take him to america in return as he is least interested in the protests lead by his father (played by kallen pokkudan - environmental activist). these parts of the film had a forced art film feeling
the film gains its pace once it focuses into dalits life and protests. shankaran faces abuse from his colleagues and then he is been tortured in police station saying that he has mavoist connections. another dalit girl who also runs autorikshaw for a life also gets teased and abused by her amle colleagues and when she oppose it she gets gang raped by them. all this incidents leads shankaran to join the protests with other dalits...
there are lots of scenes showing how the dalits are abused and tortured, for eg:
-police puts some chilli powder in a condom and wears it to shnkaran's ..... , male nudity is shown in this scene
-gang rape of dalit girl and one of them piss on to her face
etc etc...
the film also have some controversial (?) scenes, like
- one girl saying "i like gandhi because he can fuck a man too"
- in one scene shankaran tells off one of gandhis satyagraha quoting someone.
- in pre climax portion dalits put chappels on gandhi's effigy and then burns it.
overall the film is good except the forced art film shots.
m.j radhakrishnan's cinematography is brilliant, thanks to stunning locales in wayanad. film manages to capture the wild beauty of wayanad, awesome.
kudos to jayan cherian for a brilliant and bold attempt.
nb: got a chance to talk with the director after the show
