A sun-dappled coming-of-age romance that became a generational touchstone.
Across three chapters of one man's life, three very different loves teach him who he is — from schoolboy crush to grown-up heartbreak.
Director: Alphonse Puthren
Cast: Nivin Pauly, Sai Pallavi, Madonna Sebastian
Alphonse Puthren's filmmaking is all texture and vibe, and Sai Pallavi's debut is pure incandescent charm. The structure is loose and the nostalgia thick, but few films capture the ache of growing up this warmly. A mood you live in.
