An Uneven Anthology Made Worthwhile by a Couple of Segments

In Lijin Jose’s five-film Malayalam anthology, the best one is the segment on an elderly couple, played by Prathap Pothen and Urvashi

Lijin Jose’s film Her is an anthology, but it is not strictly one. No clear demarcations exist between the five films in the collection, with one segment segueing smoothly into the next, although the characters and narratives are different. However, only two of the films are directly connected, while the rest have characters from other films popping in at some point to connect it all.

Also starring the likes of Parvathy Thiruvothu, Lijomol Jose, Remya Nambeesan and Aishwarya Rajesh, this mix of complex stories is told with the lightness of listening to a friend speaking straight from the heart.

It’s not fair to call Lijin Jose’s Her, written by Archana Vasudev, an anthology. On the surface, these are the stories of five women taking place across five households in and around Thiruvananthapuram. The timelines are jumbled and these stories are set across different genres with at least one comedy, one satire and parts you can broadly call drama, each with its own mood and theme. Yet you feel conflicted by the thought of calling it an anthology because it never stops feeling like a unified whole, with the narrative smoothness of a well-written feature film (it’s edited by Kiran Das).
