In the backdrop of a spiraling economic crisis in Sri Lanka, angry and tired citizens who felt that the government was mismanaging their country took to the streets organizing anti- government protests from April to July 2022. These protests grew into what is called the 'Aragalaya' movement and thousands of people joined, expressing their frustration over many suppressed issues. One of their demands was transparency in the investigations of the Easter Sunday attacks which took place on 21st April, 2019 when a series of bombs went off across the island including at three churches claiming nearly 300 lives. Jehan Srikantha Appuhamy, a well-known Sri Lankan actor was also among the protesters. As someone who grew up having a close relationship with the church, Jehan felt traumatized after the Easter Sunday attacks. He began a walk for justice 3 years after the attacks, in a setting where the people were still not given answers as to what happened that day.

Micitype Pretty Good
Gurlyndrobb While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
Adeel Hail Unshakable, witty and deeply felt, the film will be paying emotional dividends for a long, long time.
Clarissa Mora The tone of this movie is interesting -- the stakes are both dramatic and high, but it's balanced with a lot of fun, tongue and cheek dialogue.
