Official trailer and plot of Kalamkaval
Kalamkaval is set in the early 2000s, where a group of police officers is assigned to investigate a missing person’s case in a border village between Kerala and Tamil Nadu. As the special investigation team arrives, public unrest caused by conflicting communities and allegations of elopement involving the victim creates a tense situation for the police.
However, things take a drastic turn when the group of police officers, led by SI Jayakrishnan, begins to identify a recurring pattern. Over time, they discover that several women, divorced, widowed, or single, have gone missing, with clues pointing toward a single man.
Realizing that the missing person’s case is only the tip of the iceberg, Jayakrishnan and his team embark on a cat-and-mouse chase against the suspect, Stanley Das. Whether they succeed in catching him or he manages to evade justice forms the core narrative.
