സഞ്ചാരം | THE JOURNEY (2004) dir. Ligy J. Pullappally Beautiful young Kiran falls in love with her lifelong best friend, the effervescent Delilah. But in their idyllic Indian village, tradition still dictates that a girl marry a boy chosen by her family. With longing in her heart, Kiran refrains from expressing her love. However, one day her neighbor Rajan comes to Kiran and asks her to help him compose love letters to Delilah. Thinking this will serve as an outlet for her feelings Kiran agrees, and writes passionate, poetic love letters to Delilah in Rajan’s name. Delilah, however, suspects that Rajan might not be the author, and soon discovers her friend’s secret. Kiran fears that this will end their friendship, but Delilah thrills her by confessing similar feelings, and they somewhat recklessly begin a relationship, but their deep emotion soon becomes obvious to their families.

I just watched Sancharram for the first time... welp... time to cry for the next ten years. Also known as 'The Journey', Sancharram is a Malayalam film released in 2004. It focuses on the characters Delilah and Kiran as they navigate being lesbian lovers in a society where arranged marriage is seen as the norm. I have only good things to say about the film. The colours, lighting, camera shots, acting, dialogue, it all comes together and hits you DIRECTLY in the feels. I implore you to check the movie out.

Watched Payel Kapadia's All We Imagine As Light last week and my heart has grown fonder since. It reminded me of why I love cinema as much as I do. I was drowning in the same overused stories, until this came like fresh air and saved me a little.

Kapadia's brilliant soulful scenes are enthralling and yet so unassuming. It's for everyone who lives in faraway cities where loneliness collects itself in a bundle. You'll feel your loneliness recede slowly as you become one with the movie. You'll see yourself in Prabha, a caged nurse shun by her husband and Anu, an adventurous fierce woman, both navigating life, longing and social realities in Mumbai. Though, this Mumbai is not laced with dreams but with darkness and melancholy. A city of illusion and impermanence, and yet one must imagine the light. Under the city's shimmering blue, I reimagined myself in it's female friendships, desire and insecurities. The film explores countless themes without overdoing it. One dialogue that stuck with me is 'Class is a privilege. Reserved for the Privileged.'.

The film reveals itself like poetry, the verses of which I found in Agnes Varda (female solidarity, cats), Chantal Ackerman (how it deals with loneliness in cities, city as a character), Edward Yang (social alienation, fractured modernization) and many more. The tenderness and sensibility of the film stays with you, slowly healing, slowly transforming something in you.

I love loneliness. I love love women. I love love love cinema.

All We Imagine As Happiness.
