Painted Walls of Malainagar/Malainagarin Vannachuvargal (Tamil)

Soori loves to draw and paint. But where he lives now with his mother is a rundown neighbourhood, unclean, unsafe and completely colourless! He wants to move away, but knows they can’t. He wishes that colours would rain down and brighten the buildings. A few days later, Soori finds himself amidst painters, paint cans and brushes! What’s going on?

Painterly pictures echo real textures in a story about trying to bring colour and hope into a community.
