A boy stands on the ground with his friend, watching a flock of pigeons feed on grains. His eyes move to the pretty new girl who has joined school and is standing in the corridor, her back turned towards him. Nothing that the other boys do to catch her attention works. The boy claps his hand, the pigeons take off as one, and the girl turns to look...at him. Their gaze meets beneath the beating wings of the birds.
They don't speak but then, poetry needn't always have words.
Soubin Shahir's Parava is a tender story of boyhood, set in Kerala's Mattancherry. There are two story arcs within it - one of Ichappi (Amal Shah) and Haseeb (Govind V Pai), the inseparable schoolboys who are passionate about pigeon racing and stick together through all times good and bad. Then there's the story of Shaine (Shane Nigam), Ichappi's brooding older brother, and what happened to his gang of friends.
