Ankuram (1993) watch online

Ankuram (transl. Seeding) is a 1993 Telugu-language drama film written and directed by C. Umamaheswara Rao. It stars Revathi, Sarath Babu and Om Puri. The film is about an inspiring journey of a middle-class woman to return an abandoned child to his father. Ankuram runs, in the background, issues like social stigmas, feudalism, naxalism, bureaucracy and human rights. It was featured at the 24th IFFI "Indian Panorama" mainstream section.

The plot unfolds like a Chinese puzzle; it's a journey where the viewer gradually discovers the reason for the lead being harassed by the police, the hurdles she faces uncovering a father's identity, and the darker side of an authoritarian police force and its brutality towards tribals. The film received the National Film Award for Best Feature Film in Telugu for that year.
