What is the story of Kalamkaval?

Kalamkaval is based on officer Jayakrishnan who is tasked with a challenging assignment: unraveling the true cause behind a violent communal flare-up in the state's southern region. As he delves into the investigation, he discovers a surprising and somewhat disheartening origin—the riot stemmed from a misunderstanding surrounding a young girl's decision to elope with someone, a spark that ignited deeper, more complex tensions.

What begins as a probe into a localised incident soon spirals into something far more sinister. Jayakrishnan's pursuit of answers leads him into a haunting trail of similarities: numerous women, all gone missing in an eerily parallel pattern. With each new lead, he finds himself entangled in a web of unanswered questions and unsettling secrets. It is this quest—to uncover the fate of these vanished women—that propels the core of Kalamkaval.
