This Movie Is About.
Wiki.
2018 (subtitled onscreen as Everyone is a Hero) is a 2023 Indian Malayalam-language disaster film based on the 2018 Kerala floods. Directed by Jude Anthany Joseph, who co-wrote the screenplay with Akhil P. Dharmajan, the film is produced by Venu Kunnappilly, C.K. Padmakumar, and Anto Joseph under the banners of Kavya Film Company and PK Prime Production. The film stars an ensemble cast consisting of Tovino Thomas, Asif Ali, Kunchacko Boban, Vineeth Sreenivasan, Narain, Tanvi Ram, Aparna Balamurali, and Lal.
The film was announced in September 2018 by Jude Anthany Joseph, under the tentative title of 2403 Ft.: The Story Of Unexpected Heroes, before being titled 2018. Principal photography commenced in October 2019 and took place across different parts Kerala, such as Thrissur, Ernakulam, Alappuzha, Kottayam, Idukki, and Kollam as well as in Tirunelveli in Tamil Nadu. Although production had been delayed due to the COVID-19 pandemic, it resumed in May 2022 and concluded on 13 November 2022. The music was composed by Nobin Paul and Francis Williams, whilst the cinematography and editing were handled by Chaman Chakko and Akhil George, respectively.
Initially scheduled to release on 21 April 2023, 2018 was released on 5 May 2023. The film received generally positive reviews and emerged as a commercial success, grossing ₹177 crore (US$20 million) at the box office exceeding Pulimurugan (2016) until Manjummel Boys (2024) took over. The film was chosen by the Film Federation of India as India's official entry for Best International Feature Film at the 96th Academy Awards. It was chosen as it addresses a global issue and depicts the harrowing realities of what a natural calamity is for common people. It became the fourth Malayalam film after Guru (1997), Adaminte Makan Abu (2011) and Jallikattu (2019) to be selected as India's official submission for the Academy Awards, although it failed to make the cut. It was featured in the 54th IFFI Indian panorama mainstream section.
