LOCAL CINEMAS AND REGIONAL FILMS

I recently watched the Tamil blockbuster Tourist Family at Apollo Cinemas. Directed by debutant Abishan Jeevinth, the film stars Sasikumar, Simran, Yogi Babu and other notable actors. It follows the story of a family of Tamil asylum seekers from Sri Lanka and how they make a living in a suburban colony of Chennai, India.   

But more than just a family drama, the film opens important conversations about identity and belonging.  

Canada is home to many different cultures and diasporas, with people from all parts of the world migrating to the country for varied reasons. In a time when immigration is often reduced to statistics or politicized rhetoric, stories like this remind us of the human side—of how communities are built by fostering connection and solidarity.  

The Tamil diaspora, for instance, accounts for roughly 0.7 per cent of Canada’s population, with many having come here seeking asylum after fleeing a genocide. Like them, there are so many other diasporas around us, each with their own unique cultures and experiences. But how often do we get to hear each other’s stories or understand the stories that brought us here?  

Tourist Family, at its core, touches upon this very aspect. I often reflect on the scene where Dharmaraj, the protagonist, runs to every house in the colony, urging his neighbours to come together and mourn the loss of one of them. Watching him striving to foster a sense of community and encouraging others to embrace it as well was deeply hopeful. While the film’s content and portrayals may invite discussions, its core message is one we need more of in today’s world.  

Cultural exchange and appreciation are essential for a diverse community to thrive. They create opportunities for insight and empathy, while also providing agency and representation. I still remember the first time I wanted to watch a Tamil movie and had to travel all the way to Scarborough. Going from that to now, being able to see one just a quick bus ride away has been a meaningful and positive change.  

Films transcends language and makes cultural exchange more accessible. The success of Korean and Japanese cinema shows how local stories can resonate worldwide, sparking dialogue and fostering understanding. When local cinemas showcase diverse films like Tourist Family, they help amplify underrepresented voices and reflect the richness of their communities.   

Tourist Family highlights the importance of representation, cultural exchange, and community in shaping inclusive societies. As we continue to grow as a multicultural community, it is essential that diverse narratives are not only acknowledged but also integrated into public discourse. Film, as a widely accessible medium, plays a vital role in fostering this understanding.  

By making room for a broader range of voices and experiences, local cinemas can take a necessary step toward a more informed and cohesive society.
