'Two Flags' chronicles the life and politics of a quaint French town called Pondicherry in South India. As the 6000 Tamil French people belonging to the Tamil ethnic community, gear up for the French Presidential elections of 2017, the film explores the idea of state, citizenship and home in the post colonial era. ‘Two Flags' seeks to unfurl, in all its complexity, the intrinsic duality that defines a unique community, through a visual and aural exploration of its routines. The Tamil French community does not necessarily share the same religion, language, customs, history, or indeed ethnicity of their country of citizenship: France. Although entitled to all the benefits of French citizenship, they reside in India, over which France (their government) possesses no sovereignty. In India they are resident aliens. Although they may migrate to France freely, cultural and familial attachments keep them in India. They are outsiders in both India and France.
