-This looks good, right? -Not bad.
Get that one, please.
Sister.
I want a sari.
Please ask there.
That will not work. You do it, please.
-This one? -The color suits her.
Get that one too.
Drape this one and show me.
Will you make me lose my job as well?
I'm trying. Good jobs are hard to find.
I didn’t say you weren't trying.
Don't complain if someone else marries me.
Then I'll teach him a lesson.
Yeah, right!
I come here, looking for some peace of mind.
Now you’re on my case too!
Isn’t this the one you liked, sir?
Super.
Is it?
Want to know the price, sir?
No.
No plan to buy this for me, right?
-Put it back. -Done.
Leave.
Smile, please.
A bit more.
Okay.
Please sit next to her.
-Is this okay? -Yeah, okay.
A bit closer, please.
Fine. Now place your hand over her shoulder.
Shall I?
Now hold her hand with your other hand.
Now, can you look at each other?
Hold that pose. Both of you, please smile.
Why are you crying?
She’s my daughter too.
I’ll look after her well.
Do visit us after four days, okay?
-Bye, Leelamma. -Okay.
Bye, dear.
Dear.
Go and buy my medicines.
We’ll leave soon after we see the doctor.
Let’s buy these with his medicines, Mom.
We don't know those yet.
Buy these for now.
-Thomaskutty. -Yes. Come.
Come.
Matthew, 90 rupees.
-Leelamma. 600 rupees. -Yes?
Here.
-Do you have change? -No, I don’t.
Can you get change?
Let me check.
It's 600 rupees.
Are you well?
How's your mom?
She's fine.
Anju.
Can I call you once in a while?
Oh no, no. Please wait.
Stay.
Slowly.
She won’t run away with your dad’s watch.
Take it off.
Dear, it's that girl.
Hello.
I’ll call you later.
No, I’ll check and call.
Tell me if it's too hot.
Is this okay?
Mom!
Mom.
I'm coming.
Mom.
What happened? What's wrong, dear?
Get his medicine!
-Hold him, Mom. -Yes, yes.
-Hold him. -Take the medicine.
You’ll be fine, son.
Give it to me.
Son, get up slowly.
Slowly.
Open your mouth.
Open it.
Lay him back, dear. Slowly.
No. No.
Mom!
Pain has reduced, Mom.
Thomaskutty has slept.
Lord!
Please go to bed, Mom.
You go to bed, dear.
Let me sit here for a bit.
He gets these bouts sometimes, right?
Why are you so worried?
What do I need to worry about?
I wanted to study medicine.
Had good grades in school.
But my parents didn't allow it.
At 19, they got me married.
Sheba was born when I was 21,
and Thomaskutty, when I was 23.
Then on, my husband and children were my world.
This house was so lively.
They were such a noisy lot!
And then, when the children were both in college,
it was during a monsoon like this
that my husband passed away suddenly.
After that, it was just my children and me.
I brought them up well.
Once Sheba was married,
she had time only for her family.
My son and I were alone here.
Now I feel,
the Lord is jealous of my happiness.
Now, my son too…
He's suffering so much.
If something happens to him,
I'll be no more.
Mom.
Don’t worry like this.
You’ll fall ill, Mom.
Lord!
One more.
Done…
It’s fine.
When your mom brings medicine, take it without fuss.
I will be back before evening.
Should you go today, dear? It’s going to rain.
What else?
Water may rise any time, Mom.
-Have you eaten? -No. It’s time for the boat.
It's okay. Sit down and have some food.
-Here. -Just one, please.
Can’t we just ask Sathyan to buy the medicine?
That won't do.
Need anything else, Mom?
No.
If I do, I’ll ask Sathyan.
Or else, you’ll have to carry that as well.
Here.
-Have one more. -No, Mom. Don’t have time.
Eat slowly.
Where’s the list of medicines, Mom?
It’s inside the shelf in my room.
Leave it there and go.
Leave it here.
I'll be back soon. Bye.
Dear, Not that one.
You don't know. I'll get it for you.
There was a paper in this. Yes, take it.
-This one? -Yes.
Alright, Mom.
The boat is leaving. Hurry up.
Don't leave! Please stop for me.
Twenty-five rupees.
Get on fast.
Get on.
"Rajeev…
Name, Rajeev.
Age, 34.
Sex?
Hey, which is it?
-You don't know? -Go make tea.
Driver’s license…
Your address?
Which address should I give?
Rajeev.
Which address should I mention?
Want some duck curry?
This isn't a joke.
This is a new item. Duck Mappas.
Fill it yourself, then.
I'm trying to set up a food truck. Don’t have time for a job now.
That's what you always say.
Okay then. Give this address.
What else to do?
I have to find a good house and bring my mom along.
Won’t you take me along?
Without you, how will it ever become a home?
I want this every day.
So you don’t plan to cook?
Kuttanad is flooded due to heavy rains.
The rains seem to be getting heavier even now.
Schools and houses in low-lying areas are under water.
The main roads are waterlogged, causing traffic blocks.
If this heavy downpour continues, life here will get more challenging.
Even now, people are planning to evacuate from their homes to relief camps.
Son.
Should we stay here during this flood?
Shall we go stay at Sheba’s for a few days?
-No, Mom. -What did you say?
-Let's stay here. -If you don’t want to, no need.
But give it some thought.
Dear, check if it's time for his checkup.
MAY
What is it?
Two more weeks, Mom.
Oh!
Son, where is Anju?
I'll put this away and be back, okay?
Where have you been, dear?
I was right here, Mom.
Why do you look so pale? Not feeling well?
Nothing, Mom.
Tell me if you aren’t feeling well.
-Hello. -Anju, what is it?
I'm pregnant.
Why are you silent? I'm scared.
Anju, calm down.
Rajeev, how can I be calm?
What could calm me down?
Anju, whatever it is, I'm here for you. Don’t be afraid.
I'm coming there.
I can't stay here any longer.
I just can't…
Rajeev, your order.
Why are you silent? When can we meet?
-Are you unwell? -Dear!
Sathyan!
Is there no one here? Come quickly.
-Hello-- -Sathyan! Anju!
Anju. Hello?
It hurts.
It's nothing, son.
The Lord will take care of us. Dear, quickly!
Get in quickly, dear.
Everything is fine.
It's okay.
Alright.
Fast.
Don't worry, son. Mom's with you.
You can go to the room. He is stable now.
You can speak to the doctor when he visits.
-Can we see him? -Only in the evening.
Sit down, Mom.
-Lord! -How's he now?
What did the doctor say?
They say he's alright now.
What happened all of a sudden?
When my mother-in-law went to his room, Thomaskutty was lying on the floor.
He wasn't responding.
With Sathyan's help, we could bring him here quickly.
How many times have I told you to stay at our place with Thomaskutty?
Why are you so adamant about staying in the middle of that flood?
He prefers to stay there.
You have an excuse for everything, Mom.
Have you ever listened to me?
Let it go, sister.
Go change the child's dress.
Why did you not tell me?
How far along are you?
Why are you hesitant to tell me?
It's nothing, Mom.
No, I've been noticing you for the past few days.
It’s just a hunch, that’s all.
Don’t tell anyone, Mom.
Why is that?
We should see a doctor tomorrow.
But Thomaskutty being unwell…
This will cheer him up, too.
Call me immediately. Everyone here knows.
They all think it’s Thomaskutty’s.
My dear!
Come.
Do you feel sick now?
Be very careful in the beginning.
Why didn’t you tell me?
Dad, didn’t you have to open the shop today?
We have a helper now.
Drink this.
That shop is a waste of time.
Yeah, thanks to the shop, I raised her and got her married into a good family.
Stop this bickering.
You'll start the moment you walk in!
Are you angry with me?
For what?
I forced you into this marriage.
Who knew it would end up like this?
When Leelamma told me about it, I was shocked.
You could've been careful.
Thomaskutty is awake.
The doctor says we can see him.
Thank God.
Come, dear.
Come fast.
Rock, paper, scissors!
It's the Lord’s blessing.
This baby will only usher in good things.
Dear, you have to tell him.
He is in a really bad shape. Must I tell him now?
Tell him right now.
He’ll be very happy hearing about his baby.
It'll motivate him to get well soon.
Tell him now.
You can go inside.
Come, dear.
Come.
My dear!
Does it hurt?
Have you eaten anything?
He's looking at you. Come.
Tell him.
Anju…
Mom!
-What is it? -He can't breathe.
Can’t breathe? What's wrong, son?
It's nothing, dear. Nothing.
Everything will be alright. Mom's here.
-Oh Lord! -Please move.
It'll be alright. Mom's here.
Don't be afraid.
Mom's here.
We're here.
Thomaskutty!
Aunt Anju, I want to go home.
-Dear, don’t you like Uncle Thomaskutty? -Yes.
Then, can’t you wait a few days for him?
How long?
Till the water recedes.
When will it subside?
Just pray. The water will subside soon.
Only when the floodwater recedes can we have the funeral.
What else to do?
Thomaskutty's soul must be restless.
That’s why the burial is taking so long.
Nonsense!
Nowadays, it takes only a day of rain for the water to rise!
At least drink this, Leelamma. You’ve been sitting like this for so long.
Leave it there. I’ll do the rest.
Oh, no! Dear!
What happened?
-Anju… -Dear.
-I felt a bit dizzy. -Get up.
Let it be.
Slowly…
Lie down for a while.
Drink this, dear.
You can go, Mom. I'm fine.
If I don’t take care of you now, I’ll be answerable to Thomaskutty.
Enough, Mom.
Dear, finish it, please.
Done.
Lie down for a while. I’ll sit here.
My Lord, I have trusted you!
Lord, I worship and bow down At your cross
Which gives salvation
Protection and life
Heaven and earth belong to you!
Heaven and Earth
Belong to you, Lord
Grant refuge to the living
And life to the dead
They will sing hymns of joy!
Wash away the sins
Of the dead in your mercy
Remember, they are yours
Through their holy baptism
They will rejoice in his joy!
Those who received Your holy body and blood
Lord, in mercy
Let them join your eternal banquet
None of them were left behind!
When it rains on the fields Seeds break open and sprout
When the trumpet blows
Life dawns on the dead
Ma'am, it's heavy.
Slowly, slowly.
Oh, no! Why are you doing this now, Mom?
What will people say?
If it lies there, termites will get to it.
Come down carefully.
-Carefully. -All good. Alright!
Take it outside and clean it.
This was made for Thomaskutty.
It's for the baby. Not a speck of dust should be there.
Clean it thoroughly.
Dear, after the funeral, let’s raise this yard
and build a room where water can't enter.
Once the baby is here, we can't have water entering the house often.
Mom, there’s plenty of time for all that.
Oh, time will pass very quickly.
Let all this get over.
I’ll transfer this property to you.
Why, Mom? I can’t stay here forever, right?
Why not, dear?
Isn't this your home?
I wish you would stay here with me forever.
Man.
What is it?
Are you coming out any time soon?
Let me finish, man.
Anju, tell me.
My mother-in-law’s love for the baby is suffocating me, Rajeev.
She took out Thomaskutty’s old cradle today.
The poor thing says, after the funeral, she’d transfer the property to me.
She doesn’t leave my side at all, Rajeev.
Anju.
I’ve ditched the food truck plan.
I'm trying for a job. Most probably, I'll get it.
Wait until then.
Please.
Did you ditch the food truck plan?
That’s too much work, dude.
Maybe she didn't agree to it?
Are you crazy? To leave it all for her?
She hurt you once already. Haven’t you learned your lesson?
Hello.
How long have I been trying?
Why didn't you answer the call?
Hello?
Hello, Anju?
Hello? Can't you hear me?
Hello?
Anju? Hello.
What's this, Sheba?
Isn’t he your little brother?
-Why can’t you do something? -Mom, we've all been pregnant.
It's fine, Mom. I can do this.
Go.
Dear, give the photo for the newspaper.
Let me see that.
He isn’t smiling in this.
Wait.
What are you doing, Mom? Remember, you fell down once?
Listen to me. Come down.
Slowly.
Let me check.
If you need it often, why do you keep it up here?
Here it is, Mom.
Oh, put it there.
Which one do you want, Mom?
I’ll choose. Leave it here and go.
Why are you like this suddenly?
We found out everything all of a sudden.
Who do you secretly call so often?
It's my friend, Maria. Don’t you know?
His name is Maria?
Mom, he was my best friend in college.
He supported me through Thomaskutty’s illness.
Thomaskutty knows him.
Why have you kept a different name?
My dad just hates him.
Why?
He never liked me being friends with boys.
That's why I changed the name.
I panicked when I heard him speak.
Do you think it's right to call a married woman frequently?
Mom, I never thought of it like that.
If you don’t like it, I won’t talk to him again.
Will your mom like it?
Don’t you trust me, Mom?
I have no one except you and the baby.
Oh, great King Our Lord Jesus
Bless the dead so that They wake with radiant faces
Dear, I was arranging this room.
Shouldn't the baby grow up seeing his father?
Is that your friend?
I'll tell him not to call me anymore.
No, you can talk. Just make sure it doesn’t become a nuisance.
I was trying to find a picture
of him with Sheba. I can’t find it.
Sheba!
Anju.
Anju!
Let's call him Thomas, yes?
Thomaskutty!
Oh, he is moving.
Why isn't he calling me dad?
-Come, let’s go. -What happened?
Let’s go!
Where to go? Where will we live? Nothing is ready.
What should I do then?
Anju.
Wait till I get a good job.
Or wait till Leelamma gives you the property.
Property? Forget about the property.
Anju, I don’t want anything for myself.
I can go on just like I always have.
This is for you and the baby.
We don’t need it. We’ll survive on whatever you earn.
Let’s go, please.
That isn't enough even for me.
What I earn from serving and cleaning isn't enough to provide for a family.
Anju.
I'm saying all this because I might lose you again.
When you dumped me and got married, I was very sad.
But I only prayed for your well-being.
When we grew close again, all my friends made fun of me.
But I wasn’t angry with you.
Because I love you that much, Anju.
I've never loved anyone like this.
I didn’t even know I could love someone like this.
If you don’t want to, don’t go back.
We'll figure out a way.
No.
I'll go back.
My dear.
Come see this.
Which color do you like?
Blue?
Thomaskutty liked blue.
He once had a blue shirt. He just wouldn't take it off.
Come here, dear.
May I talk to my child?
My son, Thomaskutty.
I'm so eager to meet you.
What is it, dear? Are you feeling ill?
Mom, I can't stay here anymore after the funeral.
Do you feel like you’re missing anything here?
That’s not it.
Your family will prefer that you live here.
I have to go, Mom.
What's there at your place, dear?
Do you want to make my child suffer?
I'm not going back there.
Then?
Don’t ask me anything more, Mom.
Well, you can go wherever you want.
But I want my son's child.
No, Mom.
This is my child.
I'll leave once the funeral is over.
They keep calling to ask why the kid isn't sent to school.
What should I say?
Everything is on my shoulders.
It's been seven days. Isn't it, Mom?
The water level is receding.
If it doesn’t rain much, we can conduct the funeral in three or four days.
What say, Leelamma?
Can't delay the funeral anymore.
What happens if the pit is filled with water?
We'll have to use a motor to pump the water out. That's the only way.
Where's Anju?
I want to ask you something.
When you made excuses to go into the town,
was it to meet that guy?
How long have you two been together?
I loved you like my own daughter.
For my sake, please tell me the truth.
Does this baby belong to Thomaskutty?
Tell me the truth.
No, Mom.
It's not Thomaskutty’s.
Are you sure?
I'm sure.
Mom, at least have your medicine.
You are worse than Appoos.
If you fall ill, who'll look after you?
Sister Aunty.
I’ll make some tea.
You weren't there!
You didn’t come to see him while he was still alive!
My son, all alone in the hospital…
I have no one now.
I didn't even get that job.
-I've been thinking… -Anju.
They’re all asking about you there.
Let’s leave this place, Mom.
Are you nuts? Go and sit there, girl.
What is it?
Not feeling well?
Worried about something else?
Here.
He was so afraid of rains and floods when he was young.
Remember how you forced him to learn swimming.
After that, he was always in the river.
Isn’t this his cradle?
Sister.
We have his child.
What we can do for him now is…
to raise his child well.
I know you’ll do that well.
Rosamma, let me go check on Appoos.
-You rest here. -Okay.
Yeah. Strongly…
-Jiji. -Yeah?
They're asking for you.
Okay, I’m coming.
Come, dear. Let’s go inside. Slowly.
Let’s go inside and eat.
Carefully.
Get down.
Eat, dear.
-Mom! -Stop. Don't run!
Eat this.
Have you told your mom about it?
Rosamma was telling me…
not to be sad about Thomaskutty.
Now that we have his child,
we will raise him well.
What can I say?
I longed for this child so much.
If you had to take it back, why did you give me hope?
My son.
How much he suffered before he left us!
Be kind to his soul at least, girl!
I can’t stand people ridiculing my son.
Can’t you just live with me?
I can’t anymore, Mom.
I will leave with him after the funeral.
I won't live here to hurt you.
Leelamma.
What happened to my daughter?
What did she tell you?
That she wants to leave right after the funeral.
Whereto?
Okay then, George. I'll call you.
Want to go with him?
-Dad, let go. -Answer me now!
-She isn't well. Move aside. -Leave me, Dad.
-What are you doing? -Please. Dad. Don’t answer the call.
-Dad, please. -Someone might hear…
-Move away, you! -Dad!
-Hello, Anju. -You swine!
Have you no shame to lust after somebody’s wife?
If you call or see my daughter again, I’ll kill you.
Give it to me!
Even before your husband is lowered into his grave,
you want to take his child and run off with your lover?
Have you ever thought of my happiness?
Didn’t I beg you to let me marry Rajeev?
You forced me to marry Thomaskutty.
How many times have I told you, Mom, that I was rotting here.
That I was fed up.
She asked me to bear it. Haven’t I till now?
I can’t bear it any longer.
I can’t!
Her upbringing is showing its true colors.
Don’t you start now! Remember, this is a house in mourning.
Weren't you ashamed to hide her affair and marry her off?
-Well! What honor do you have! -Sheba, stop.
I will make sure that this family’s name is not ruined.
-Just-- -Sheba, Come!
Shameless lot! I'd warned back then.
Hope you are satisfied after humiliating us in front of everyone.
Dear, remember this.
Don’t ever dream of living with that jobless Hindu boy.
-Forget about it. -Dad.
He has always lived for you, dear. Don’t hurt him.
I can’t live without him, Mom.
That'll never happen, girl.
-I fold. -As usual…
Hey…
Come and drink with us.
You can drink even if you didn’t pitch in.
Stop it. Rajeev, come here.
Hurry up, man.
-Have you arranged for the ambulance? -Yes.
Should bring the body tomorrow. It's been two weeks.
Hi.
Sheba.
The number you are calling is either switched off or not reachable--
Come on.
Let them come.
Come on.
Okay. Enough!
Careful!
Hold it there.
Son!
Thomaskutty.
Open the casket.
Open the casket! Open it.
Open the casket.
Thomaskutty.
Sathyan!
Have you arranged for the pump?
Yes, it's done.
The church stands like the dove
The serpent came to break the nest
And devour all those doves
Lord, don't forsake this church
Achieved by your sacred blood
Those traveling in the sea!
Like traders crossing the sea
-We cross the earth -Where's Anju?
She's not well.
Destitute by the time They reach the shore
Will cry when others rejoice
Anju.
Trying to show your true colors to everyone?
Come and join the prayer.
Anju.
Anju!
Why did you come here?
Had I taken you with me the other day, this wouldn’t have happened.
Right?
Go now. If my dad sees you, he’ll kill you.
Come with me. Let's go.
-Now? How can I, Rajeev? -Aunt Anju.
Somebody’s coming. Go. Go!
Leelamma.
The cemetery is flooded again.
Shall I arrange the funeral at the town cemetery?
The floodwater will recede soon.
The Lord will answer my prayers.
He should be buried here in this church, in our family burial vault.
Haven’t we waited enough? Who knows when the floodwater will subside?
I haven’t locked anyone up here. Those who want to leave, may leave.
This family has some prestige and legacy.
Everyone may not understand that.
This is a mobile mortuary.
We can't keep Thomaskutty in it for more than a couple of days.
The body will start to decay.
No matter how long we have to wait,
he should be buried here, with his father.
And me too, when the time comes.
Anju.
Why don’t you come for the prayer?
I'm not coming there.
People have started talking. Don’t humiliate this family.
-Mom, I-- -Oh, no.
Don’t ever call me that again.
Jealous people are awaiting the ruin of this family.
As long as I’m alive, I won’t let that happen.
Go sit by your husband’s body.
Doesn't anyone understand that I'm not well?
Sister Aunty, please tell her.
Let her rest if she’s not well.
Why should we dance to others’ tunes?
Rosamma, do you know what's happening here?
Despite knowing everything, she married our Thomaskutty.
She took good care of him.
What do you mean, "despite knowing everything"?
He had a headache a long time ago. So?
It’s when you fell sick that our father offered you to the church.
Aren't you perfectly fine now?
Don’t be jealous of my family because you don’t have one.
That’s not right.
What did you mean by "knowing everything"?
Oh, it’s nothing. Take rest.
Go and buy my medicines, dear.
-Let’s buy it with his, Mom. -We don’t know those yet, right?
Thomaskutty.
-Where’s the list of medicines, Mom? -It’s on the shelf in my room.
Dear, not that one.
You don't know about that. I'll get it for you.
Out of the depths, I cry to you
Lord, hear my voice Be attentive to my prayer
Lord, if you keep count of Our wrongdoings, who would survive?
Because forgiveness comes from you
I surrender to the Lord I count on his word
Like the watchmen long for the daybreak I long for you, Lord
Like the watchmen long for the daybreak Israel longs for you, Lord
Because he is full of mercy
He will redeem Israel From all its iniquity
Why did you bring this out there?
Do I have to tell you?
Long ago, he got a swelling on his head.
He was treated and got well.
So what?
Didn’t the same recur after marriage?
Didn’t all this happen because of it?
How could I know that the tumor would recur and take him away?
-What the Lord wishes-- -Leave the Lord alone.
To hide it from me, you never took me along to the doctors, right?
How could you do this to me?
This is not any worse than what you did to my son and me.
You and your son deserve this.
You dumped a dying man on me.
People are noticing.
What is it?
-Oh! There's a power cut. -Let's go check the generator.
No point blaming my sister alone.
Your family must’ve known about this.
They would’ve inquired about the boy before the wedding, right?
They probably didn’t, considering your family's status.
Nobody thinks they'll cheat like this.
Sister Aunty, how could you be a part of this?
Just remember that you are answerable to God, if not to anyone else.
Dear, I had told everything to the priest in your parish.
Please don’t lie to me anymore.
The priest and your dad are very close, right?
But your dad would never have expected all this.
Dear!
Did she tell you she was fed up here?
Jiji!
Why didn’t you tell me she was suffering here?
-Did the priest tell you, Dad? -What?
Did you know that Thomaskutty had a tumor before marriage?
What nonsense are you saying?
Had I known, would I have agreed to this marriage?
That’s what I want to know. Why did you do this to me?
You don’t trust us?
I don’t trust you, Dad.
Anju, stop it.
He doesn’t know anything.
What? What doesn't he know?
When the priest visited us, your dad wasn't at home.
I never thought things would end up like this.
I wanted you to be happy.
It was a marriage proposal from a good family.
Do you think I would harm you on purpose?
When he--
When he got sick again, why did you not tell me then?
You could’ve told me at least then, Mom.
Is there anything else here that I should know?
You always say
that the Lord is jealous of your family's happiness.
Let alone the Lord…
even for humans, what does your family have to be jealous about?
It’s all your delusion.
His father had never given Thomaskutty a loving hug or kiss,
he never even addressed him affectionately.
A good memory of you all together…
Thomaskutty didn’t even have that.
It's not surprising.
Your husband was never here with you.
On his deathbed, he gave Thomaskutty his watch.
Is that love?
No matter what happens or what anyone says,
I’m going to live with Rajeev.
This is your husband lying here cold.
Being married doesn't make someone a husband.
He needed me only to sleep with him and to take care of him as it suited him.
This man never touched me or looked at me with love.
Having an affair while being married,
carrying that man's child…
This has never happened in this family before.
You've only loved yourself, Anju.
You won’t understand the love between Rajeev and me.
Because your husband never gave you that.
Can't you at least try to understand it?
What is this?
If you can’t do your job, get somebody else.
Enough.
Sorry, sir.
A lot of proposals got rejected. That’s why I didn’t disclose his illness.
Good that you did. I feel relieved.
I only wanted Thomaskutty to be happy.
I didn’t mean to cheat her.
Still, I should’ve told her, right?
They also didn’t tell us that she was against this marriage.
You don’t have a family.
I have one.
But it's all the same.
Keep it.
Lift a bit more. Keep it there.
Bring it.
Keep it here.
Keep it there.
Over here.
Lift it.
Careful. A little bit.
Like this.
-Kept at both sides? -Yes.
Wipe it.
Come, George.
What's it, Leelamma?
I didn’t know she was unhappy with Thomaskutty.
I only prayed for him to get better.
If I knew he was ill, I wouldn’t have agreed to this marriage.
Jiji knew.
You didn’t let her marry the boy she liked.
Instead, you forced her to marry Thomaskutty.
There is no point in blaming each other.
You should agree to her wish.
Over my dead body.
Really, George?
Leelamma, I have lived an earnest life.
You may have wealth and prestige. That doesn’t mean…
What prestige?
What honesty?
If our children aren’t happy, what does it matter?
She is your daughter, stubborn just like you.
She told me she’d leave as soon as this was over.
That’s why I delayed the burial.
Hoping she would change her mind.
No point in waiting now.
As you suggested, let’s bury him in the town cemetery.
Make the arrangements. As soon as possible.
And…
she loves him very much.
If you remain stubborn, she will suffer.
Is that what you want?
Dad.
Say something.
Leelamma spoke for you.
Wait till the funeral is over if you can.
Dad, wait.
I have a lot more to say.
No. Don’t say it.
It'll hurt your mom.
Go.
My dear Anju, finally you called!
How's it there?
Find a house for us.
Dad is letting me go with you.
Really! How come?
Thomaskutty first got sick years before the wedding.
They hid that from us.
Great!
Yet, they beat you and blamed you.
-I’ll leave on the day of the funeral. -Okay. I’ll arrange everything.
By the way, what about the other thing?
What?
Did she say anything about that property?
No.
Did you ask?
No.
Could you please ask?
Rajeev, I’m leaving this place. Do we need it?
Our problems will be solved if we get it.
She’ll give it to you if you ask.
Where's Rajeev's order?
Rajeev.
-I… -I'll call you later.
I had something to ask you.
What is it?
Why are you here? You’re set to leave with someone.
-Have you no shame? -Sheba.
-Why are you supporting her, Mom? -Be quiet.
Shaju and I had told you to find a proposal that matched our status.
But you wanted just her. Look at what happened!
If she goes with someone else with our child, we’ll lose face.
Shameless folks!
Sheba, stop it.
If you dance to her tune, we won't stand by you.
Where were you when Thomaskutty was ill?
She was the one who took care of him. She has earned her place here.
Thomaskutty's soul will never forgive you, Mom.
You’ll suffer.
Don’t mind her. She is upset.
What did you want to say?
Nothing.
Lift it up.
You move aside. It shouldn't get wet.
Anju, after the funeral, we can move here.
Let's stay here.
The guys are moving out.
The priest has started. Could you get him?
Ask Sathyan to get the boat. I am coming.
We’ll be back only after the water subsides.
-Packed everything? -Yes.
All done?
Where's his watch?
Let me check.
Leelamma is asking for his watch. Where is it?
Anju!
The priest is on his way, Leelamma.
Packed?
Take everything you need.
Okay, Mom.
Come sit with me.
Though unintentionally,
I’ve hurt you a lot.
Please don’t hold that against me.
I was desperate, Mom.
I made many mistakes.
Don’t hate me.
No, dear.
I understand you more than anyone else.
At least from now on, you should live happily.
Like I said, I'm giving the property to you.
I will prepare the will after the funeral.
No, Mom.
No need. It’ll be a burden for me.
Don’t refuse this.
The baby’s first gold ornament should come from me.
No need, Mom.
Please take this.
Tell the child it’s my gift.
This too.
Put this on him.
After the delivery…
Can I visit the baby once?
I wished for him so much. That's why.
We’ll visit you often.
You and the baby can stay here. This is your house, too.
Not much time left.
Finish packing.
They will sing hymns of joy!
Wash away the sins Of the dead in your mercy
Remember, they are yours Through their holy baptism
They will rejoice in his joy!
Those who received Your holy body and blood
Lord, in mercy, let them join Your eternal banquet
None of them were left behind!
When it rains on the fields Seeds break open and sprout
I forgive you.
Forgive me too.
It’s their property. How can we ask for it?
If you loved me as I love you, you would not have refused it.
But for you, I come after everyone else.
Back then, your family and now Leelamma.
Why are you talking like this, Rajeev?
You know how much I suffered to be with you?
I am accepting you even after you slept with another man.
Nothing is greater than that, right?
Anju.
Anju, sorry.
Come.
Get your bags. Let's go.
Anju.
Let Mom leave.
I don’t want her to see me leave with you.
Come to the pier.
How will you manage alone there, Mom? I’ll always be worried.
It’s fine. You leave.
I have my Thomaskutty there with me.
Can’t you stay with Sheba till the water recedes?
Appoos.
Study well, okay?
Listen to me at least now, Mom.
Anju, where are you going?
Leaving me again?
That's my child you’re carrying.
