Movie: Kumbalangi Nights

​Mivin and I are from Kerala. We feel lucky to have lived in two vastly different cultures growing up. One of the benefits is being able to experience Malayalam movies. Movies from Kerala are unique in my opinion. There is a lot of emphasis on character-driven narrative, cinematography and exploration of universal themes.

We are screening one of my favourite Malayalam movies of recent times: Kumbalangi Nights.

​Don't worry there will be English subtitles. All are welcome to join.

​The movie explores family dynamics, brotherhood, and personal growth—themes that transcend cultural boundaries while being presented through a uniquely Kerala lens.

​Kumbalangi Nights is an authentic glimpse into contemporary Kerala life that is neither exoticized nor sanitized— it's honest storytelling that invites viewers into its world.

​After watching the movie if you have any questions about the movie or life in Kerala, happy to chat about it.
