Made primarily for children, Gattu is a sweet and an overly simplistic movie with a lesson. Gattu is a little orphan boy who works in his uncle’s tin-yard. Uneducated and not really interested in work, Gattu yearns for kite-flying, and specifically to bring down “kali”, a black kite that reigns supreme in the neighbourhood’s sky. Since the tallest roof in the area is the school’s roof, Gattu tries to steal into school to have a go at kali from there. Gattu is aimed at kids and set in the real world; there are no evil characters and the boy never really finds himself in real peril. What does happen though is that he makes mistakes, and by the end of the film, learns from them to set things right. Gattu is short (only eighty minutes), it is humorous and good fun. Although it will be appreciated by (and be beneficial for) pre-teen children, its limited commercial appeal means very few will actually get to see it.
