A River Unknown

Nalpathanchamathe Nadi (A River Unknown) documents the life of Gopinatha Pillai, a villager from Kerala who has dedicated his life for nature conservation. When Pillai started a minor scuffle with the local sand mining workers way back in 1985, little did he know that it would be the most defining moment of his life. In this film, Pillai’s friends and associates share their memories of the unusual activist while he narrates his life and reasserts his convictions.
