National Waterway 3, Kayankulam



A film of oil on National Waterway No 3.

It runs parallel to Kerala coast, through a network of lakes (backwaters) and canals. Here, in the Kayankulam Kayal or lake, the water is pretty clean except for this long line of oil on the surface along the channel the fishing boats coming back from the sea take.

KPAC and the Global Malayalis.

Long before Asianet, Kairali, or Surya. Even before Thomsun, Harmony and other Gulf VHS movies tapes, the Malayalis  who escaped Kerala and colonised the world's offices, hospitals, factories and restaurants connected live to the slow motion non-revolution back to home through the KPAC performances in their adopted homes.

The KPAC office is filled with these mementos from that era.
