Chatrak (Mushrooms) (2011) is another film with a confusing narrative by Vimukthi Jayasundara. (VJ)
His films are most suitable for adults containing graphic violence, nudity, and sexuality.
The Forsaken Land (2005), Chatrak (Mushrooms) (2011), and Dark in the White Light (2015) are his list of films that I was exposed to.
They are well cinematographed but have a very confusing narrative that may distract the viewers.
The common theme of VJ is the unstructured development of the South Asian region and he has emphasized it in many perspectives through his films.
"The forsaken land (2005)" focuses on the war crimes of the Sri Lankan Army, "Chatrak (Mushrooms) (2011)" analyses the rapid development of Culcutta without a proper plan leading to confusion of people around them and people who are involved in it and finally "Dark in the white light (2015)" focuses on spiritual development and technological advancements of Sri Lanka infusing magical realism to the film making style.
Overall Chatrak (Mushrooms) (2011) takes the audience to a new paradigm exposing the viewers to Culcutta and its beauty as well as horrors.
Hidden philosophical themes and symbols are felt and are evident when watching the film exposing the director's creative vision and talent.
I watched Chatrak (Mushrooms) (2011) on SLT PeoTv streaming services. According to many reviews, it was an edited version but it does not disturb the viewers to enjoy a good film with philosophical undertones.
The film is run in the Bengali language and the streaming service provides Sinhalese subtitles.
Overall rating - 3/5
