Riding a Stallion called Dream(2010)

Riding a Stallion called Dream(2010)
Director:Girish Kasaravalli
Country:India
Runtime:110min

A masterpiece by director Girish Kasaravalli, who has given life to the story based on the work of writer Amaresh Nugadoni (`Savari') in his unique narration and presentation of script. One feature of the narration is the number of flashbacks told with different angles, and combining the future. Kasaravalli, with an excellent grip over the sequences, makes you part of the story from the beginning to end.
The story revolves around Irya (Biradar), the grave digger of the village, who has the ability to foresee events in his dreams. When he sees Siddha, his master and messenger of death, in his dream, he believes that the ailing septuagenarian Gowda of the village is dead and prepares a grave for him. But Mathadaiah ( Sadashiva Brahmavar), the caretaker of the house, denies any death as he has his own reasons to hide it. Irya is confused and cannot believe that his dream has gone wrong.

Rudri (Umashree), Irya's wife, in her dream sees Siddha visiting the village. The whole village is excited as he is believed to bring good luck. Even this dream fails to come true. Irya and his wife are devastated and wonder how, all of a sudden, their dreams have started failing. Without dreams, their life become even more unbearable. How does Irya survive without dreams?
