A few words...Oridathu tells the story of a village in Kerala, which is just being equipped with electricity supply. At first the new achievement is a big attraction to the villagers, but slowly its importance. A pharmacy is opened, a stage play is being rehearsed and one day a female body is found in the pond near the village temple. Aravindan's completely plotless film combines elements of tragedy and comedy depicting rural live in Kerala in the mid 1950s.
