INAM movie review #INAM

INAM .....Saw this movie in oorvasi cinema hall, trichy …. This is one more movie taken on the sufferings of the srilankan tamil people around the final battle moments in 2008 and 2009 ….. Unlike the stupid movie MADRAS CAFÉ …which was idiotically one sided, this movie has tried to depict some realities …… …… I must salute Karuna who has been a comedian of tamil cinema, has done the very emotional role ……. My true credits and salutes to him for giving such wonderful act … what a great performance, The story starts with a place in north eastern part of Srilanka , where SARITHA runs a orphanage of abandoned children ……. In this same environment, KARUNA teaches such children English classes, in a run-down school ….... When the class was going on an armed woman cadre (? LTTE) suddenly enters inside teaching hall, and covers the black board with a white cloth, and runs a picture with a projector …this video stimulates all children towards the war for liberation ….. The children gets excited on seeing the video …… was this a reality? …… does the director want to say that children were not allowed to get education in time, but made to fight the war by the tamil fighters ? …… is it the aim of the director to convey?
The director has shown the love and romance between the teen ages orphanage children ….ok......are these scenes are really required? ……. The orphanage manager saritha conducts marriage between these under age teen children ….i don’t know why these scenes have been inserted ……. In reality was there any childhood marriages? ……….
in another scene, a srilankan monk is sitting on the sides of a small stream, and talks very politely … (he has been shown as a very good person) …he gives fruits to these abandoned orphanage children ……… what does the director want to convey ? …does he want to say that all Buddhist monks are good in Srilanka?
After a few scenes, the healthy children (male) of the orphanage runs out of the orphanage and joins the armed struggle ….. Then there are lots of scenes of gun battles and aerial bomb attacks over that Tamil area …everybody, every remaining civilian try to escape to a safer area ….
Srilankan army enters in to Tamil area …the srilankan soldiers do physical search of the escaping people ….. One soldier tries to do physical advances (molest) a young women by way of body search …. This creates angry among the escaping people …. KARUNA one among them object such activity by the srilankan soldiers …. soldiers beat Karuna heavily ....Suddenly some of the angry armed cadres opens fire over the soldiers ….. In this gun battle scene, the soldier who did the molestation dies …….… he is lying dead and he is carrying his daughter’s photo …….. ….. What the hell, the director want to convey here? ….. Does he want to say that he(soldiers) too suffered out of the war? ………. What nonsense?
Next scenes are very terrible …..The soldiers take the young escaping girls and rape them in day light ….. They also rape a girl who is 6 months pregnant …….. Does this much violent scenes are required for this movie? ……but the scene where one srilankan soldier takes mobile photo of the raping scene ….. this was the hard reality of the war ……..i am sick of such movies ..... I just suppose that directors like Santosh sivan want to cash on the difficulties of srilankan people …bloody nonsense ……

Finally the young girl reaches the detention camp(probably India) and narrates her complete story ……… I had the effect of seeing a good documentary …. One of the positive points of the movie was a smooth camera effect throughout the movie time ….the music was appropriate ….The movie is just one among a series of movies showing srilankan problem …. …… I did not like the scenes where the director tries to show a Buddhist monk as very good person … not required at all … one more scene , the director has shown sympathy over a erring soldier … (what and why the hell ……………… ) ……. This Santosh Sivan has tried to encash on the difficulties on srilankan people …we don’t want any more srilankan problem based movies ….
