| Abstract: | The Malayalam film Joji, directed by Dileesh Pothan, presents a gripping narrative steeped in themes of familial conflict and moral ambiguity. Set against the backdrop of a patriarchal society, the film explores the complexities of male relationships, particularly the damaging effects of toxic masculinity and the absence of maternal influence. The film centres on Joji, whose struggle for identity and autonomy is shaped by his authoritarian father’s rigid expectations of masculinity. This study analyses how these expectations manifest as violence, manipulation, and moral decay, ultimately leading to tragic outcomes. Through character development and familial interactions, Joji critiques the traditional ideals of masculinity that prioritize power over empathy. As Joji navigates his envy and jealousy towards his father and brothers, the narrative unfolds a dark tale where death becomes a means of liberation from oppressive familial structures. This paper argues that Joji serves as a profound critique of patriarchal authority, illuminating how these themes interweave to shape the dynamics of evil within the family. |
