Drama
Vanya has never known his father—only the story his mother tells, that he’s working in Moscow. With his friend Fedya by his side, Vanya meets Viktor, his mother’s former classmate who once lived in Germany, and starts to wonder whether Viktor might be the dad he’s been missing. As that possibility takes hold, the two prepare to head to Moscow and search for him.

More About This Film

Vanya is a Kannada-language drama about an elderly man who refuses to abandon the forest home that has defined his life. As outside authorities and modern systems push him toward evacuation, his resistance becomes a confrontation between personal freedom and institutional ideas of progress.

The film is rooted in the relationship between people and the natural world, using the forest as both a physical setting and a source of identity. Its quiet tone contrasts the pressures of modern society with a slower, deeply personal way of living.

  • Directed and produced by Badiger Devendra.
  • Meghana Belawadi, Prakash Belawadi, and Vaijanath Biradar are among the cast.
  • The film is in Kannada and runs for approximately 100 minutes.
  • It was selected for the Indian Panorama at the 56th International Film Festival of India.
  • It won Best Feature Film in the Kannada competition section at the 17th Bengaluru International Film Festival.
