synopsis

This hybrid personal essay ventures into the depths of the country which the filmmaker's grandparents left 80 years ago in one of the colonialist-driven waves of migration. Searching for memories and associations, he wanders through the abandoned city, trying to connect with the imagery and thought of his ancestors and looking inside his own perception, reflecting on the traces of inspiration and the spirit of the places he explores.

biography

Sruthil Mathew studies directing and screenwriting at the K. R. Narayanan National Film Institute (KRNNIVSA) in Kerala, India.
