Pebbles

This movie portrays the other side of the world because there are still villages in India especially in Tamilnadu that doesn't have access to good transportation. The school portrayed in this movie is a typical example of thousands of schools still existing in Tamil Nadu. The alcoholic and abusive fathers and helpless wives and families, a lot of them still exist. While some people experiencing all luxuries in the world, there are still people who don't know the meaning of the word 'luxury'. There are people in the world who catch, fry and eat rats because they can't afford anything beyond. This is a hard hitting movie, a reality check. Just not for everyone. Silence and the little boy's eyes speak volumes in this movie.

We that is the film federation of India is still wearing the glasses of 60s.

Whereas world has moved ahead.

I still don't see any sense in showing such cinema, besides pandering to the white man's burden syndrome. You showcase abject misery and shine it as rat used to do. Comeon guys noone has time for such shenanigans in today's world.

Raise issues and suggest solutions. Raising abject hopelessness serves noone neither the viewer nor the team of such projects.

Big thumbs down for art cinema of 60s. A breed that is extinct and for good.

While watching this, I was reminded of the incident where my other brothers and I were carrying bundles of sheep's worms in the scorching sun on our big brother's sheep farm and pouring them back and forth into the pits that had been dug for manure!

As a reminder of that, it stood out in my mind as a memorial tree and seed!

A journey through the desert to reach the village where father and son live, it becomes a representation of the family, patriarchal power and the division of the sexes. Despite a drunken and violent father, the son follows him (perhaps he will also become a drunken and violent father). There is good handling of the camera (in the long shot in the village), but the length is long for the scope of the narration.

This movie is not the highlights of your life , cinema has been soo kind to give only the highlights of life and makes more intresting and increase our tempatation. But this film is an exception. This movie is toattly have a different working, if u r commercial cinema lover pls dont watch it but if u r a cinema lover this film is for you. Its a different concept , it will be difficult to explain. This movie is point to point action of events without highlights which portraits the true emotion of a person. The scenic climate siyuation everything was an absolute creep. U may get bored due to the lot of walking, but it was quite an experience. A perfect artistic film. The director vinoth kumar has conveyed lot of things without dialogues. The sounds camera were soo good. The cast did their job to perfect. The too much walki g scenes cud have reduced , but a good artistic experience. Many dont understand this concept. But its worth for a cinema lover. Available in Sony Liv.
