Chitrasutram (The Image Threads) is a 2010 Malayalam film, written & directed by Vipin Vijay, produced by Altaf Mazid, Zubeen Ahmad, Sushanta Roy under the banner of Unknown Films. The film was also supported by Hubert Bals Film Fund, Rotterdam, Goteborg Film Fund, Goteborg, Sweden and the Global Film Initiative, US.
The film follows a computer teacher, his grandfather, who practices black magic, and a cyber-creature. Their paths intersect through a series of online and offline encounters. As the narrative progresses, the imagery on the computer screen becomes increasingly abstract, eventually reducing to a single pulsating pixel, suggesting the story may begin again.
