Jagadish, a man who has committed nearly 100 murders over 25 years, sits in prison recounting his story to Kabilan, a writer eager to document his life. As Jagadish narrates his journey from the early killings of the late 70s to the complex narrative of a man who sees murder as creation the film unspools through flash backs, shifting perspectives and ambiguous characters. In a world of grey morality, Kabilan and Jagadish become mirror images one as observer, one as perpetrator as the tale questions why we root for the bad guy. Set in the 1990s-2000s, the visuals evoke the era with an anamorphic lens and a mood of unsettling introspection. Show less
