Malayalam film ‘Half’ at TIFF
As the first Malayalam movie to premiere in the Toronto International Film Festival's (TIFF) Midnight Madness section this year, director Samjad PS's Malayalam film "Half" is under the limelight. International audiences responded favourably to the movie when it was screened at the festival. The focus of Half is on Ethan (Ranjith Sajeev) and Ivy (Aiswarya Raj), siblings with extraordinary powers due to their interspecies parentage (human mother, vampire father). As they travel through the barren roads of Rajasthan, a set of local criminals unexpectedly assault them. Under the cover of darkness, the brother and sister quickly recuperate and go out to exact retribution.
