FHF is delighted to share that after over two years, our 4K restoration of Aravindan Govindan’s poetic film ‘Kummatty’ (1979) continues its journey! ‘Kummatty’ will be screened at the Anthology Film Archives in New York tomorrow, Sunday, December 10, at 6:15 pm and on Wednesday, December 13 at 7:30 pm. The restoration was a painstaking laborious process involving many hours of work over several months to recover the beauty of Aravindan’s imagery from a print that had turned magenta.

‘Kummatty’ was restored in 4K by The Film Foundation’s World Cinema Project, The Film Heritage Foundation and Cineteca di Bologna at L'Immagine Ritrovata Laboratory, in association with General Pictures and the family of Govindan Aravindan.
