CIRCUS TENT (THAMP)

Director Govindan Aravindan's acclaimed cin?ma v?rit? fixes it's cameras on the performers from the Great Chitra Circus and the villagers of Thirunavaya, and the transcendent experience shared over a three-day stop. The docudrama, a significant entry in India's "parallel cinema" movement, beautifully captures the real-life reactions of the non-professional cast, many of whom are witnessing a circus for the first time, and the workaday routine of the show's performers. With Nedumudi Venu, Jalaja, V. K. Sreeraman. 129 min. Widescreen; Soundtrack: Malayalam; Subtitles: English. In Malayalam with English subtitles. Region Free
