The Tetrahedron

Maya the protagonist, on her way to the college, hears a radio news of a strange geometrical figure with the shape of a ‘tetrahedron’ that appears from nowhere besides the Nazca lines in Peru. In the mean time, Maya’s friend Divya’s father, Neelan, goes missing. Few days later he is found from a distant land with signatures of pre-historic habitats around the place. Maya meets a few people from distant lands, of different races, roaming around a desolated architecture. Are they humanoid creatures? By the end of the film, through a dream passage that connects both Maya and Divya, we get to know about the disappearance of Maya.

Directed by Vipin Vijay, The Tetrahedron leans on a strong ensemble — Athira L P, Munshi Baiju, Kani Kusruti — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about mystery titles of 2018.
