A young girl is torn between duty and desire in Sumitra Peries’ groundbreaking coming-of-age drama. 

Beautifully restored in digital 4K, Peries’ lyrical and poignant 1978 drama is a pioneering work of Sri Lankan cinema. Full of yearning and feminine sensibility, it stars Vasanthi Chathurani as a young villager who falls in love with her wealthy cousin (Ajith Jinadasa). Hindered by social conventions and the ambitions of his mother, their relationship drives Kusum towards loneliness and renunciation.
