1987 · Drama · India

Original title: അനന്തരം

## Synopsis

Anantaram, also known as Monologue, is a 1987 Indian Malayalam-language psychological drama film produced, written and directed by Adoor Gopalakrishnan. It stars Ashokan, Mammootty and Shobana in the lead. The film is structured like a monologue. It develops through a commentary by the protagonist about himself in the first person. The attempt of the protagonist is to narrate how his ignored mental health deterioration or "psychosis, not otherwise specified" has led him where he is now. The film was an experimental film for its time as it did not have a linear narrative.
