Don Palathara's latest film, Family, will be screened at the 14th Bengaluru International Film Festival in the Indian Panorama section. It marks the film's first Indian premiere. Earlier, the film premiered at the International Film Festival Rotterdam.

The film stars Vinay Forrt in the lead role of Sony. It is produced by Newton cinema. The family explores the complexities and contradictions of familial relationships in contemporary India. According to the makers, the synopsis reads, "Sony is a kind man, a good Christian. He is always willing to lend his fellow villagers a helping hand, assist struggling children with their school lessons or organise volunteer activities. When an outcast family is struck by tragedy, he negotiates with the Church to rehabilitate them financially. Sony is not just the connective tissue, but the beating heart of this small Catholic village. Under his genial exterior, however, lurks something dark.' 

Don Palathara has written the film with Sherin Catherine. The film also stars Divya Prabha, Nilja K Baby, Abhija Sivakala, Mathew Thomas, Jolly Chirayath, Manoj Panicker, Indira A K and Sajitha Madathil. The 14th Bengaluru International Film Festival will take place from March 23 to 28. The Indian Panorama section showcases the best of contemporary Indian cinema.
