Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Neeli draws on Kerala's rich tradition of yakshi folklore—female spirits who lure victims, subverting the 'mother goddess' archetype into something predatory.
The four strangers represent four failed institutions: faith (Reni), documentation (photographer), law (thieves as failed social order). None can save Thara.
