VILAYAM is a psychological short film that explores the fragile space between life and death — a suspended moment where one man, on the verge of ending it all, is confronted by an unseen force that refuses release without truth. What unfolds is a haunting journey through nine deeply personal questions, turning the act of dying into a ritual of reckoning — not with the world, but with the self.
