The journey began in 1928 with Vigathakumaran , a silent film directed by J.C. Daniel. Unlike many early Indian films that focused on mythology, Malayalam cinema established a precedent for social realism early on. The industry has always been inextricably linked to Kerala's traditional art forms, such as Theyyam and Koodiyattam , which influenced the visual aesthetics and dramatic structures of the medium.

Modern Malayalam films are known for being "rooted" —they focus on specific local dialects, cuisines, and landscapes. Movies like Kumbalangi Nights , The Great Indian Kitchen , and 2018 (based on the devastating Kerala floods) have gained massive popularity on streaming platforms.

In the last decade (2015–Present), Malayalam cinema has experienced a renaissance. With the advent of OTT platforms, films like Kumbalangi Nights (2019), The Great Indian Kitchen (2021), and Joji (2021) reached a global audience. However, despite the universal themes, their roots remain profoundly local.

For a state that prides itself on high literacy and social indices, Malayalam cinema is brutally honest about Kerala’s hypocrisies.
