Weeping Boy is a touching Malayalam drama film that was released in 2013. Directed by Felix Joseph, the movie stars Beena Antony, Anjana Appukuttan, and Sheelu Abraham in the leading roles. Set in the backdrop of Kerala, the film revolves around the life of a young boy who gets separated from his mother at a very young age and lives with his father.

The story begins with the introduction of Antony (Sreenivasan) and his son Roy (Sobin Shahir). Roy is an introverted, sensitive boy who seldom speaks and spends most of his time doing odd jobs around the village. Despite his father's love and support, Roy remains aloof and distant. Antony runs a small shop that sells coconut oil, and they live in a small house in the countryside. Antony's wife and Roy's mother, Maria (Beena Antony), had left them when Roy was just a little boy. Antony hasn't heard from her since, and he presumes she is dead.

One day, Roy meets a young woman named Annamma (Sheelu Abraham) who comes to the village to conduct a survey. Annamma is a cheerful, lively person who takes an instant liking to Roy. She sees through his exterior and tries to connect with him. Roy starts opening up to Annamma and begins spending more time with her. She becomes a source of comfort and solace for Roy. However, as Annamma prepares to leave, Roy confesses to her his desire to find his mother.

Annamma decides to help Roy and sets out on a quest to locate his mother. She contacts a detective agency, and together they begin investigating Maria's disappearance. Through a series of twists and turns, they are finally able to trace her to a hospital in the city. Maria, it turns out, had been suffering from amnesia and has no recollection of her past. Annamma brings Roy to the hospital, and they are finally reunited with Maria. As the three of them journey back to the village, Roy and Maria gradually start reconnecting. However, when they reach home, they face a new set of challenges.

Weeping Boy is a poignant tale that touches upon the themes of love, heartbreak, and reunion. The film is a beautiful portrayal of the bond between a mother and her child, and how even the smallest fragments of love can mean the world to someone. Sheelu Abraham delivers a breathtaking performance as Annamma, who is the backbone of the film. Her infectious smile and charming personality light up the screen and leave a lasting impression on the viewer. Beena Antony is excellent as Maria, and one can feel her pain and confusion as she struggles to reconnect with her son.

The film's cinematography is stunning, capturing the lush greenery of the Kerala countryside perfectly. The music by Bijibal is hauntingly beautiful and adds to the overall emotional depth of the film. The supporting cast, which includes Anjana Appukuttan as Annamma's friend, also contributes to the film's success.

In conclusion, Weeping Boy is a must-watch for anyone who loves good storytelling and emotional drama. The film will make you laugh, cry, and ultimately leave you with a sense of warmth and satisfaction. It is a testimony to the power of human connection and the beauty of forgiveness.
