8 / 10 (36)

Drama Comedy

Synopsis

A satirical movie around the petty politics and corruption surrounding the construction of a new bridge in a village, in place of a perfectly serviceable one…

MUBI's take

Based on a short story by Malayalam satirist Veloor Krishnankutty, this witty drama takes a clever potshot at politicians misusing public resources for their personal benefit. Relevant and hilarious, Panchavadi Palam turned out to be prophetic in its its observations on corruption in India.
