Movie Review: Ee. Ma. Yau
Ee. Ma. Yau. (Eesho Mariam Yausep). Words which are written in the beginning of the funeral card of certain Christian community. After Jana Gana Mana and Dravid’s warning, the theatre becomes silent. From somewhere is heard a nice sound of a church band, which reminded me about death, funeral and yes, the last sent off. From slow volume to high it seeped straight into my heart. And in the visual we can see people who are moving towards the church with a dead body for the funeral. In front are the cross followed by band orchestra and many people. It is evident through the visual that it is an elegant funeral ceremony of some known person in the place. Meanwhile title scroll is moving through the visual and at the end of it the movie name appears - Ee. Ma. Yau by Lijo Jose Pallissery. The director welcomes us to Chellanam, a coastal area near Kochi. The story begins from there the moment we meet Vaavachan Mesthiri. His voice is very rough but his legs are not stable as he is drunk....
