Against the sensory landscape of central Kerala Johnny, a soon-to-be priest must navigate his way out of his dissonant life towards self-discovery. The film reanimates Malayali gay desire through an expressionistic use of Christian music, intimate tastes, and unabashed touches while depicting delicate specifics of same-sex fondness. Resisting the popular narratives, the film discusses the plural possibilities of romantic relationships. Interspersing semi-autobiography with fiction, Velipadu: “The Revelation” is a bitter-sweet rhapsody that sings of love and faith– both lost and regained like some Miltonic Paradise.
