Body of Work

A complex and demanding film about a young man's life. Director Gopalakrishnan divides his film into two parts which tell the same story and comment on each other. The first part is the protagonist's autobiography; the second examines his imaginations, memories, and fantasies. A fascinating meditation on memory, reason, intuition , and the very nature of story telling. (Source: The 8th Hawaii International Film Festival Catalogue 1988)
