Storyline
Featured review
Nice visuals and Narration.
Amaravati is an interesting, indie documentary tracing this South Indian city. from a Hindu mythology, Satavahana legacy and Buddhist antecedents.
Through the use of live interviews, the documentary explains the cultural relevance of the city of Amaravati and its significance. With Andhra Pradesh set to build its new capital city Amaravati, it is important to know and understand the antecedents of the city.
The film itself is well done. But, I was left wanting more. It would have been better if they had provided some information about the development of Buddhism in the city, who the players were and the possible interactions between Hindus and the Buddhists then and if there was any friction at all between the two religious groups.
There are some very good visuals, authentic interviews pertaining to the ancient temple of Amareshwara Swamy and the ancient Buddhist city Dharanikota. Some nice compilation.. The narration by Mr. De Wood is a true asset and brings in an international flair to this informative documentary all in under 10 minutes. Kudos to the film maker.
