Drishyam Films Presents an Unconventional Psychological Thriller, ‘Tamso’, Set to Haunt the Screens at the Prestigious Fantastic Fest in the USA

Mumbai (Maharashtra) [India], August 22: The spotlight is set to shine on the captivating world of horror as Drishyam Film’s ‘Tamso’, also called ‘Suburban Tales’, makes its highly anticipated debut at the prestigious Fantastic Fest in the USA. Directed by Stephen Alexander, the film is produced by Rashmi Somvanshi (July Motion Pictures Pvt. Ltd.)  and presented by Drishyam Films, which has earlier given us masterpieces like Aankho Dekhi, Masaan, Dhanak, and Newton that have been internationally recognised at renowned film festivals like Cannes and Berlin.

It is a proud moment for the cast and crew of Tamso as Austin King, Features Programmer and Head of Submissions at the Fantastic Fest, rightly compares the film’s compelling cinematic endeavour with Kafka’s, ‘THE METAMORPHOSIS’. “What if Kafka’s THE METAMORPHOSIS was an Indian werewolf movie?” says King as he reviews the plot that promises to redefine the genre by blending spine-chilling elements with a deeply personal narrative.

‘Tamso’, meaning ‘from darkness’, derived from Sanskrit, delves into the depths of the human psyche within the backdrop of a family wedding. The estranged daughter, Radhika, portrayed by Rashmi Somvanshi, is compelled to return home, only to be confronted with an unforeseen twist. The youngest family member, Deepu, is taken over by an enigmatic entity during the wedding preparations. As the family grapples with the inexplicable possession, secrets buried within the family’s history resurface, causing an unsettling cascade of events. As reality merges with fantasy, Radhika embarks on a journey to confront her past and unearth the darkness that has long haunted her family.
