All Guild Reviews of "Kiss Wagon"
A Meditation on Love, Civilisation, Violence and Religion
Kiss Wagon bears the unmistakable hallmark of an idiosyncratic work meant to be fully decoded only by its creator
This January, Malayalam cinema saw the convergence of its two extremes. A big-budget drama featuring a male superstar who wields unassailable influence over the local audience was released in theatres on the 25th, jolting the film ecosystem out of its lull. Coincidentally, Kiss Wagon, an experimental feature film directed by Midhun Murali, premiered in IFFRʼs (International Film Festival of Rotterdam) coveted Tiger Competition section, where it won two prizes– the FIPRESCI award and the first Special Jury Award.
