Ullozhukku follows the story of Anju, a young woman who is forced into a marriage with a terminally ill man, Thomaskutty.
After his death, her life takes a dramatic turn as tensions arise between her and her grieving mother-in-law, Leelamma. Amid all this, Anju is also secretly pregnant with her lover’s child.
Set against the backdrop of the devastating Kerala floods, the delayed funeral forces confrontations involving secrets, duty, and freedom. The film also highlights complex relationships between women and societal expectations.
