ആമി ഒരു പെൺകുട്ടി | Aami A Girl

Psychological impact of childhood indoctrination by parents and religious institutions has rarely been discussed in public because of the public disposition to be blind to anything that challenges the ways of traditions and religions practices. ‘Aamy – Oru Penkutty’ (Aamy – A Girl), a short film scripted and directed by Shammas Jamsheer, is an attempt to throw some light on the issue.

The 30-minute film seeks to visually narrate through the story of eight-year old girl Aamy the damages done to children by parents by imposing their beliefs, rituals and practices on them. The girl being brought up in a family that strictly adheres to religious tradition is shown as struggling between restricting milieu imposed by faith and her innate sense of freedom.Aamy is a victim of the denial of innate freedoms under the burden of given sacred laws, the film shows.

Chandana Shijesh plays the role of Aamy in the film. Cinematography is done by Naseer Vengara and Sathyadev. Cast also includes Aishwarya, Sneha Pradeep, Jeema Jayan, Bindu, Arathi Ajith, Sudhakaran Chooloor, Vasudev.
