Panorama 2 Fishes on the Hook / Thoondil meengal RM Udhayan / India / 9 mins / 2025

Synopsis

Thoondil Meengal (“Fishes on the Hook”) is a poignant exploration of the recurring tragedy of honour killings in India. Through the metaphor of baited freedom and trapped desires, the film dives into the silent yet systemic violence faced by young couples who defy rigid social norms. Set against a backdrop of love, control, and resistance, Thoondil Meengal confronts the cruel weight of caste, tradition, and family honour — questioning who holds the power to love, and who decides its cost.
