Sobre o filme

Diwakaran’s new journey starts with his acquisition of a bioscope from Frenchman Dupont who did Bioscope shows in Pondicheri. He returns home and starts conducting bioscope shows in his village. The villagers welcome the new images with innocence. Yet, some suspect that the bioscope has ghosts of the British hidden inside it. His father is deeply concerned about his wife, Nalini’s illness. He believes modern medicines are incapable of curing her and looks for medicines and cure in astrology and witchcraft. Diwakaran is greeted by all these forces when he arrives home with his brand new images. A witch-doctor who comes with a mute girl that can tell what’s past and predict the future, sounds the death-knell for the bioscope...The exorcism of tradition over the pulse of modernity….
