- The film will screen at the Marché du Film at the Cannes Film Festival, an industry market used to secure international sales and distribution.
- Chidambaram directs and co-writes with Jithu Madhavan, with music by Sushin Shyam and key roles for cinematographer Shyju Khalid, editor Vivek Harshan and production designer Ajayan Chalissery.
- Coverage describes a deeply emotional story about identity, belonging and survival, centered on a mother–son bond that the director says speaks to “the weight of where we come from.”
