Uttarayanam (Govindan Aravindan, 1975)

The depths of disillusionment. A country liberated to domestic corruption, opportunism, oppression and indolence. Missing a lot of context, but of course India fell to those rottening cycles of power after British rule, and resistance to power fell to its own rot. A young man trying to find his place and ideals within that world, a quarter of a century on. One of the quietest movies i've seen, possibly to highlight both his nothingness of being and opportunity and a magnificent sitar score when it comes in. More experimental than i was expecting. I'm new here.
