Gamani Sinhala Movie Review

This move is based on a true story.  The LTTE massacre 57 people in a village which has a few untrained security personnel.  The story is about a brave female school teacher's efforts to convince the Army Major of the near by camp to train men from the village to protect them against the next LTTE attack.

I thought that it was very well done.  The acting is good.  There are a lot of powerful messages delivered throughout the movie.  I am sure it was made with the foreign audience in mind.  There are some comical scenes throughout the movie to keep you smiling as well.

Gamani is a film by Rear Admiral Sarath Weerasekara.  It is a long movie at 3 hours but was well worth it.  The initial massacre scene is a bit graphic so watch out for that, especially if you are taking small children.  The movie also has English subtitles.  I am sure they made it so it can be shown outside of the country as well.  I recommend all Sri Lankans watching it...
