Following the rather impactful “Jagat” back in 2015, Sun-j Perumal did not come up with a new film until now, for reasons unknown to the public. It seems, however, that these reasons actually became an inspiration for him in order to come up with “Fire on Water”, a rather polemic film that criticizes the (local) movie industry quite heavily.
Fire on Water is screening at International Film Festival Rotterdam
Karthi is a disgruntled sound guy working on commercial productions, essentially hating his job as his dream was to come up with his own movie, based on his own script. The film presents a flashback to his initial days in the industry, when he was still a dreamer and dating Shuba, a woman who actually stayed with him for some time, until his disappointment and his knack for the bottle drove her away.
