Synopsis:
"Underworld Memories of Untouchables" are the memories of three generations of people in the director's own village, Peringeel, in the Kannur district of the state of Kerala, India. The history, evolution, new formation and development of caste atrocities, their subsequent inventions and interventions in Kerala can be traced politically. Caste has acquired the new style of suppressions in a psychological level against Dalits, beside the physical attrocities by the transformations of generations and time. The Brahmanical communist interactions in the socio-political realm of Kerala failed to eradicate caste. On the other hand, the "love" and "caring" of Brahmanical communists in the Malabar region of Kerala clearly have had the psychological undertone of a caste system. Untouchability can be removed only by Dalits grabbing their own power, knowledge and money in Indian society. The geographical, social, economical and political evacuation of Dalits from mainstream villages, the death of Dalit societies, alternate Dalit political outlooks for power, intellect and economy are discussed in thie video.
