Calmness (2000)
Director: Jayaraj
Movie review
From Time Out Film Guide
Two old friends grow further and further apart in early adulthood due to their commitment to opposing extremist political parties; the result is hatred, murder and revenge, not to mention grief for their mothers. Well-meaning but schematic, facile, and none too lucid in terms of narrative organisation. Not bad looking, though.Author: GA
