Grahana

drama · Short Films · kannada

The short narrative strives to be a story of superstition, as well as oppression. It takes us into the life of a couple who have recently had a baby. It has been a few days now, but the infant still doesn’t making any sound. When he is taken to the local godman, instead of a doctor, the hapless parents are told to spend a hefty amount and get rid of the innocent baby one way or the other or he would bring them extreme misfortune.

At the same time, there is a parallel story developing which portrays the oppressive nature of a marriage where a man and his mother mete out cruel behavior to his wife. As the two storylines come to overlap, Grahan (Eclipse) presents its primary message to the audience.
