Narivetta (2025) is one of those films that sneaks up on you and refuses to let go. Directed by Noble M Mathew, this movie takes a deep dive into the messiness of human relationships, family secrets, and the complicated dance between love and betrayal. The story’s set in a sleepy Kerala village, but don’t let the quiet fool you—there’s drama simmering under the surface, just waiting to explode. The plot centers on two estranged siblings who reunite after years apart, dragged back to their childhood home by the sudden death of their father. The house is practically a character itself, creaking with unresolved tension and memories nobody really wants to face. As they pick through their father’s belongings, old wounds resurface. There’s jealousy, resentment, and all those little betrayals that never really went away. Their mother, who’s been holding the family together with spit and stubbornness, isn’t exactly thrilled to see all the drama come flooding back. But here’s the kicker: nothing is really what it seems. There are secrets buried deeper than just family squabbles—some involving the village, others that risk tearing the whole family apart. The movie isn’t afraid to get messy with its characters. People make mistakes, say the wrong thing, act out of spite. It's raw, emotional, and sometimes even ugly, but that’s what makes it real. By the end, Narivetta isn’t just about one family—it’s about all the ways people hurt and heal each other, and maybe, just maybe, find some kind of peace.
