Kerala. The plot of the film revolves around converting missing women from Kerala and using them for terrorist activities inside and outside the country. Activists claim that 32,000 women are missing from Kerala. There are widespread protests against the film. Now, Youth Congress leader Rahul Mamkootathil has come forward with criticism against The Kerala Story. Rahul told the crowd that The Kerala Story is not the story of Kerala.
He also noted that Kerala in the film is the Kerala that the director wants in the imagination of the director’s Sangh Parivar. Rahul’s response was through a Facebook post. For the past few days, discussions about a film directed by Sudipto Sen called The Kerala Story have been seen in many places. Saw the trailer of that movie yesterday. At first, it was ignored out of concern that it would be a part of the film’s visibility by discussing yes. It was then that I remembered Martin Niemöller’s famous quote that I, like many others, quote in my speech. That’s why I remembered to respond because even silence until they finally come for me is a protest against fascism.
