Beautiful, interesting, incredible cinema.
The only way to become a great Kathakali dancer is to follow your master. Individual excellence is nothing compared to the devotion to the Master, which the protagonist learns too late in life.

Based on an eponymous poem by the much-revered P. Kunhiraman Nair, Kaliyachan is a soulful reflection on ego, arrogance, and devotion to an art form. With its brilliant cinematography and stirring background score, the film offers a moving glimpse into the spellbinding world of Kathakali dancers.
