The film takes us to the heart of the massive year-long protests against the Indian government’s then newly enacted farm laws during the COVID lockdown.
Over half a million protesters gathered – men and women from all generations, religions, classes and castes – and reinvented co-existence at massive protest sites that burgeoned on the borders of Delhi.
The film invites us to experience the everyday textures and indomitable spirit of this historic farmers’ movement – until, finally, victory!
