Arrival: A Short Film

Author : Mani Kaul | 2013
Published By: Films Division

'Arrival' is a short film depicting the arrival of goods and human labour into a city from rural areas. This film explores the product-commodity-exchange value relationship. Representing in itself a variety of exchange value, money as capital destroys the natural specificity of people and things. In the process, the labourer is reduced to a mere commodity.
