Mythical Film 'A.R.M' Stuns at IFFI with Kerala's Folklore

Director Jithin Laal's 'A.R.M', a film rooted in Kerala's folklore, made a significant impact at the International Film Festival of India (IFFI). The film, featuring Tovino Thomas and Surabhi Lakshmi, explores a story through three generations using a mythical lamp as a central symbol. Laal considered IFFI his educational turning point, having attended since 2013, and emphasized the film's layered storytelling addressing caste and cultural inheritance. IFFI itself remains a pivotal platform celebrating versatile cinematic expressions in Goa from November 20-28, 2025.
