Stop Violence

In a city where crime wears a badge, Stephen, the circle inspector in charge of the anti-goonda squad, quietly operates as a crime lord, ruling the streets with his brutal lieutenants Acid and Sathan. The balance of power is fragile, and every move he makes widens the chasm between justice and intimidation, turning the city into a stage where loyalty is bought and fear is the main currency.

Angelina, a nun who endured a horrific rape that left her pregnant, fights a legal battle to return to the convent from which she was expelled. She faces a system that seems to tilt toward silence rather than justice, and she enlists the determined help of Adv. Pauly as her advocate, while her steadfast friend Ambili stands by her side through the legal and moral maelstrom. Angelina’s courage draws attention in a city where reputations are fragile and reputations can be weaponized.

The storm thickens as Kishanbhai, a rival gang leader, becomes a focal point of the conflict. He becomes a target when Adv. Pauly and her connections maneuver to shield Angelina from a mounting controversy, prompting Stephen to tighten his grip on power. To complicate matters, Pauly secretly hires Sathan’s gang to safeguard Angelina, an arrangement that sparks a dangerous escalation between rival factions and turns personal betrayal into public violence.

Ambition and brutality collide when one of Kishanbhai’s henchmen rapes Ambili in retaliation for the shifting alliances. Ambili, torn between fear and survival, agrees to become Stephen’s mistress in exchange for protection from Kishanbhai’s gang, a decision that further blurs the lines between protector and predator. Stephen then deploys Sathan as Angelina’s bodyguard, hoping to keep the situation under control; the city watches with bated breath as the two powerful factions collide.

The violence erupts in a brutal sequence: Stephen and Acid assault Kishanbhai and assault his wife, capturing the crime on a damning video to force silence. The ensuing tragedy—Kishanbhai’s wife taking her own life—sparks vengeance among Kishanbhai’s men, who kill Acid and move to kill Sathan as well. Sathan escapes, killing one of Kishanbhai’s men, and the raid threatens Stephen and Ambili, who narrowly survive the onslaught.

As the dust settles, Sathan removes a key obstacle by killing a principal member of Kishanlal’s gang, but Stephen’s disillusionment grows when he suspects Sathan has developed genuine feelings for Angelina. The tension comes to a head when a new CI, Shekharan, takes charge of the goonda squad and begins cracking down on Stephen’s regime. In a tense tug-of-war, Stephen tries to eliminate Sathan, but the resourceful gangster helps him escape, recalling lessons Angelina had whispered earlier.

Suspended from the department, Stephen’s ire boils over as he confronts Sathan and expels him from the gang, desperate to discover Angelina’s whereabouts. Sathan then confronts Angelina in a church, where he reveals a devastating truth: it was he who raped her. After this confession, the two depart the church together, leaving Stephen and the police to pursue a man now marked by betrayal and tragedy.

In a fateful finale, Stephen and the authorities close in, arrest Sathan, and a brutal plan to end him is set in motion—an act that would also seal Stephen’s own downfall. But Sathan summons his last strength, grabbing Stephen’s leg as a train bears down, and the two are crushed—dead, entwined in a final, violent close to their power struggle. Angelina escapes by disguising herself as a nun and is later seen raising Sathan’s son, a quiet end to a violent saga.

Throughout the narrative, the voice of the director, Lohithadas, guides the storytelling as a narrator, a meta-layer that suggests he was researching for a new script even as events unfold. In the closing moments, Angelina is portrayed as a single mother to a son fathered by Sathan, and the final street-side poster hints at Lohithadas’s next project—an era-defining tale inspired by Sathan’s life.
