Lens
Much-needed message
Lens, directed and enacted by Jayaprakash Radhakrishnan deals with the subject of voyeurism. Anandsami plays a key role too. Screend at various film festivals , it won many awards.
The English version was distributed by LJ Films and the Tamil version is distributed by director Vetrimaaran under his company Grassroot Film Company.
Aravind’s (Jayaprakash Radhakrishnan) growing estrangement with his wife, owing to his indulgence in virtual sexual relationships, paves way for his encounter with a stranger. This random experience takes a turn for the worst when the stranger requests Aravind to witness his suicide on a Skype call.
There is a reason for him being threatened by a strenger. The rest is what happens in his life in the next few hours.The film is for present ageneration and it exposes the dangers of technology.
Jayaprakash Radhakrishnaan has done a wonderful act and Anandswami as stranger is brilliant. Music by GV Prakash adds pep to the story
A much needed bold attempt by the filmmaker which deserves a praise.
