foreign. Penned by noted writer Benyamin and it follows the true story of the life of a young man Najeeb,
who in the early 90s migrates from the lush green shores of Kerala in search of the fortunes in a land
abroad.
Speaking about this Indian film which is made for a global audience, director, Blessy said, “The greatest
challenge in front of me was that The Goat Life is a subject with universal appeal and I would have to
stay truthful to its narrative style. The novel is based on some real incidents and I want to captivate the
viewers with each moment that something as unbelievable happened to someone. Truth has never been
so much stranger than fiction. The scale of the movie demands to be felt within the confines of a theatre
and we are excited to bring this magnum opus to audiences around the world.”
