Parents should know
Mild violence: an elephant goes mad and brings its foot down on a young man's head. A 1950s Kerala drama about a church-backed strongman fighting communist land reforms; brief romance, some plot-level unrest and old-fashioned action, alongside a strong message about unity and resisting oppression. Also mild scary or upsetting scenes, mild sexual content and mild bad language.
