Prasanna Jayakody (In Sinhalese: ප්‍රසන්න ජයකොඩි) is a Sri Lankan film director and screenwriter who has been internationally recognized for his cinematic accomplishments in contemporary Sri Lankan cinema.^[2] His movies primarily explore the human state of mind, displaying fusions of human emotions, senses and thoughts set against the fractured socio-economic, cultural and religious environments of Sri Lanka. In the global context, Jayakody’s cinema represents the psycho-biological realities of mankind and the arbitrariness of human cognition juxtaposed against the larger concept of civilization. In the absence of a flowing story, Jayakody’s eccentric cinematic world capitalizes on subtle but detailed images and intense characters.
