Logline

A Climate For Crime

The first story ‘The Thief’ is about Kunjunni, nicknamed ‘Son of a Thief’, who fervently yearns to reform his father who is a thief. In the second story, ‘The Police’, Head Constable Pillai and his cunning colleague Mathu are entrusted to solve a case of theft in a rich merchant’s shop. These police officers are suspected of having found the culprit and sharing the loot with him, collude to frame an innocent rickshaw-puller in the burglary case to save their own skins. ‘Two Men and a Woman’ is the story of Krishnankutty, a university student, who is forced to make a choice between a servant girl with whom he is having an affair and the daughter of the head of his joint family who he is obliged to marry. The fourth episode ‘One Woman, Two Men’, is the story of two men, one elderly and the other middle aged, who fight over a bewitching woman who doesn’t reveal her preference. Adoor Gopalakrishnan
