''Marichavarude Kadal'' is about the decline of Gandhian principles in the modern era. It flits between past and present, as the tale of an elderly couple wedded to Gandhism is narrated, in the backdrop of sea. The sea, here is a symbol of the watery end of the great ideals of Mahatma Gandhi. ''Amma'' is a tale of an elderly housewife who yearns for love and attention from her husband and grown up children.
