Set deep in the heart of a village in South Central India, Grahanam is the haunting tale of a young boy struck down with a mysterious and life-threatening illness. The village shaman’s superstitious diagnosis enrages the community with notions of betrayal and scandal, leaving the village broken in its wake. Mohan Indraganti’s debut production is a shimmering adaptation of the dark, suspenseful and controversial story Doshagunam (The Disease) by a progressive writer, Chalam.
