Perhaps there is a sense that audiences might be feeling some content fatigue, and so filmmakers are presenting anthology films that attempt to focus on one theme, while offering a range of stories in different styles. Freedom Fight is supposedly based on the idea of freedoms, but if that weren’t the title of the five-film anthology, the viewer wouldn’t figure this out to be the unifying theme. Because apart from being a very mixed bag in terms of the quality of the story, storytelling and filmmaking, this supposed central idea also is a bit of a stretch.Freedom Fight 2022 Movie Download.
All five films are based more or less on social issues. The first film – Akhil Anilkumar’s Geethu Unchained – is about Geethu, played by Rajisha Vijayan, trying to break free from society’s prying eyes and rules, and trying to teach her family to do the same. And she’s not a hell-raising rebel; she has just learnt from the mistakes of others and doesn’t want to repeat them. Rajisha plays sensible, youthful Geethu with verve and is ably supported by the other actors. The film raises some good points that most youth will identify with and is a good opening film.
In fact, it whets our appetite for the treat that is Kunjila Mascillamani’s Asanghadithar, a charming telling of the struggle of sales girls on Kozhikode’s SM street to get access to toilet facilities. Kunjila, using some documentary-style commentary in parts, captures the bond among the women and hits us with the seriousness and the frustrations of this basic need with humour, straight-talk and a cameo by P Viji, who initiated the real-life protest in 2009. Srindaa, who plays the lead role, is fabulous with her uninhabited body language, her comic timing and the pathos she brings to the role. It’s not a flawless film and it does stretch out, but it gets points for showcasing this subject.
