Kaantha

We love a movie about movies. A story about telling stories that really asks... why do we tell stories in the first place? This week's film artfully presents this question: do we tell stories for acclaim, or to reveal a truth about the world? Two (fictional) powerhouses of the 1950s Tamil Cinema world duke it out to see whose motivation will triumph, with disasterous consequences for just about everyone, and no clear answer of who wins or who loses. Kaantha was written and directed by Selvamani Selvaraj and stars Dulquer Salmaan, Bhagyashri Borse, Samuthirakani, and Rana Daggubati. Like what you're hearing?
