The independent film scene of India is exploding at a rapid pace. Low budget movies pouring out of this country are very impressive indeed. Revelations is amongst the creative bunch that does not shy away from the realism of a diverse and cultured country.

First time feature director, Jayapal, takes us on the streets of Kolkata, visiting the music street scene which is an eye opener, as well as the backstreet brothels and other avenues rarely visited by Bollywood. But the most important insight Jayapal offers is that of the characters who are swamped by the chaotic scene of Kolkata. Revelations focuses on the inhabitants of an apartment block, and how their life's intersect and collide to create an interesting drama.

The tone and pace is deliberately slow, but yet effective. It allows the viewer to observe with great fascination, drawing them into the characters and the surprising revelations they have in store. It is a drama well worth sitting through, with its humanistic characters of honesty.

In an Industry ruled by commercialised Cinema, Revelations stood out in depicting what a movie actually is.

The movie with a tiny screenplay and a lot of breathing space! Never been engaged so much into the inter-twining relationship revelations of the lead characters (last one was Jagten aka The Hunt). This is how a movie should be..with a lot of space to breathe..to let the audience sink into the environment..to let them feel the aura.. Vijay Jayapal - you are no ordinary film-maker! Thank you for giving us this gem! Damn How did I miss this for such a long long time!

WARNING - Not for commercial movie lovers! Strictly Prohibited!

A beautiful and moving drama which does not shy away from the harsh realities of real life. All actors did justice to their roles. A thinking person's film. A must see.
