From the Festival preview of the film: Kirumi shares the story of egotistical and unemployed Kathir who has no problem gambling away his family’s hard-earned money, until he finds his calling as a secret police informant. Capitalizing on his knowledge of Chennai’s underground and his personal desire to rat on those who have embarrassed him he finds that success is swift as he becomes a favourite amongst officers. This doesn't last long as his arrogance soon compromises his hidden identity. Kathir learns there are consequences for tattling on the city’s most ruthless gangsters. Find out more here.
