Angammal drops today, rooted in truth, not performance

Director Vipin Radhakrishnan talked about how his film Angammal tried to capture authentic village life instead of staged acting, and lead actress Geetha Kailasam basically moved into the village to nail down how the local women moved and talked. Saran Sakthi and Bharani rounded out the cast with performances that hit pretty hard, according to the director.

The story drops on December 5 and centers on a mom whose traditional clothes embarrass her son when his future in-laws plan to visit, which spirals into deeper stuff about family dynamics and personal identity. The production team went with sync sound recording, which meant everyone had to stay totally locked in during those long village shoots with sketchy weather conditions.
