Purusha Pretham – Male Ghost
European Premiere in presence of director Krishand
Sub Inspector Sebastian handles
a unidentified male body and become tangled in a procedural, personal and emotional maze.
The respected sub-inspector "Super Sebastian" has a problem: A corpse has washed up in his district in Kochi, of all places, and no one knows who the dead man is. Shortly after the body is buried anonymously because no one has come forward, the grieving widow Susana turns up and claims that the dead man is her missing husband. But Super Sebastian doesn't believe a word she says and has a very specific suspicion ...
A film noir in which the police do not come off particularly well. "Wrapped in a dash of humour and with due respect for the deceased, the film explores the system with a touch of satire." (Director Krishand)
