Poet, writer, lyricist, and filmmaker Kutti Revathy just made her film debut with Vanji, which screened in the Cannes Market on May 17.
The film reimagines the ancient story of Kundalakesi, following a woman's journey through betrayal and self-discovery set in seventh-century Tamil Nadu.
Revathy says Vanji's themes of resilience and transformation are still relevant today.
