Kammatam follows Circle Inspector Antonio George, who senses something off when planter Samuel Umman dies in a suspected road accident, especially when he notices a missing necklace at the scene. His investigation leads to Shaji, an auto driver with a criminal past, who is soon found dead in a quarry.
A mysterious two-wheeler at a construction site points to deeper involvement, and all clues slowly circle back to Francis, a quiet worker from Samuel’s plantation. As Antonio digs deeper, a chilling web of deceit, silence, and secrets buried far beneath the surface unravels.
