Karthika Naïr

Karuppu Raja dearly loves his small village of Pothakudi. He takes great pride in being responsible for its only source of light, switching on the circuit breaker every night to power the streetlamps. But one evening, he discovers a bird's nest buried deep inside the box. He's faced with a terrible dilemma : to turn the switch on and destroy the nest or to leave the village in darkness until the fledglings are born.
