Documentary on noted writer Maythil screened

'Maythil-In the Earth', a documentary on post-modernist Malayalam novelist and poet Maythil Radhakrishnan, was screened here today.

"My film is a journey into the visionary insights of a rare poet and thinker in Malayalam. The title makes itself apt by identifying his name with the earth wisdom that animates his writings," K Gopinathan, who directed the 41-minute documentary, said.
