A little village where eating beef is a daily priority, one morning the buffalo which was to be butchered ran away and what follows is 90 minutes of awe-inducing pandemonium. From the visionary director Lijo Jose Pellissery comes a technical masterpiece which has a strong message about the animalistic traits of us humans & also the herd mentality & devolution of human beings. This film is not plot driven, instead it deals with events & an army of characters constanty moving from one place to another. The sound design & cinematography is on another level. Only cons are the acting of some characters & the last scene which is basically a spoonfeeding of the message. It deserves to be our Oscar Entry, hopefully it can campaign well enough to have a chance.
