Plot
One of the most-watched Malayalam shorts ever, Sujith Govindan's Ranthal ('Lantern') unfolds during India's Emergency years. In thirteen tightly wound minutes it shows how power presses down on a small rural household, lit by little more than a hurricane lamp. It crossed two crore views on YouTube.
