  Tabu
Tabu is the story of Matahi and Reri, two young people in love on an island whose inhabitants still live their lives according to traditions that go back hundreds of years.
She is tabu, a human being that cannot be desired.
Although Tabu's view of island life might not seem all that scientific today, the film was something of a landmark in ethnography -- in contrast to many other jazz age documentaries that looked at "alien" cultures, Tabu portrays its subjects with a generous amount of respect and artistry.

With an impressive star cast of Amrish Puri, Ajay Devgan and Tabu, the movie revolves around the second generation in a crime family.
The movie does not have the rough and almost crude angles of Ardh Sathya or Drohkaal, but is much more refined in its treatment.
Tabu ends up looking almost unreal in all those windblown shots and Netra Raghuraman is an add-on and provides the necessary glamour.

Conceived by two master filmmakers, but essentially made by only one, Tabu is the last great silent film (released four years into the talkie era).
Filmed entirely in Tahiti, "Tabu" represents an unusual collaboration between legendary directors F.W. Murnau (Nosferatu, Sunrise) and Robert Flaherty (Nanook of the North).
Compare the scenes on original trailer on the DVD to the same ones in the movie and you'll see that part of the picture is missing.

Not only is her look slightly westernized, but she also manages to speak with an accent that is so becoming of the character.
It is fun to enter the writer's world of imagination but it is frightening when one thinks of most people not being able to relate to the goings-on on screen.
Tabu's love interest in the film, Kameshwar Mathur (newcomer Kunnal Kapoor), fits the role perfectly.
