Agraharathil Kazhuthai (Translation: Donkey in the Elite Colony) is a 1977 Tamil language movie directed by avant-garde filmmaker John Abraham. John's second film, Agraharathil Kazhuthai made in Tamil, is a hard hitting satire on the brahminical bigotry and superstition, where a donkey becomes the central character. John Abraham (August 11, 1937 - 31 May 1987), was a Malayali Indian filmmaker and screenwriter.He was more famous for his style of living and way of thinking than for his films. He attained a mythical status, living a nomadic kind of life. He rebelled all the established ways of life as well as art.John Abraham is recognised as a genius in Malayalam cinema. He made his mark with the Tamil film Agraharathil Kazhuthai, but is possibly remembered most for his efforts in starting a people's cinema movement called Odessa ....Wiki In this black-and-white Indian feature, a schoolteacher compassionately adopts a newborn donkey when its mother is killed by an enraged crowd. He tries to take care of it himself in the town he lives in, but social pressures force him to take it to his home village and hire a blind girl to look after it. Even there, someone has it in for the hapless creature, and engineers a situation which will lead the villagers to kill it because they take it to be a bad-luck animal. After its death, it becomes a local legend and is considered, ironically, to confer blessings on those who have visions of it. ~ Clarke Fountain, All Movie Guide http://movies.nytimes.com/movie/147354/Agraharathil-Kazhuthai/overview More Info http://www.chaosmag.in/john.html
