Synopsis
Elliptical editing invites ambiguity and fracture into linear narrative, disorienting the spectator. After twenty schizophrenic minutes, Subarnarekha settles into a classical rhythm and the focus of dramatic conflict becomes the relationship between brother and sister. Ishwar is unable to come to terms with his sister Sita marrying Abhiram, who hails from a lower caste.
