His once fertile land, now regained from the clutches of industrialization after a decade. In this testing times of growing agrarian crisis across the globe, thousand acres of fertile land is taken away from farmers, by force. And, then, after a decade long battle, it is returned to them. Meanwhile, a complete factory establishment of a luxury product is built and then grazed down to debris on the said land. Will he get back his land the way it was? Shot in a doc-fiction manner on the actual space with a guerrilla crew, this film explores the journey of a farmer through these times in a metaphorical and experimental format. A fictional take on a true event that uprooted the almost-four-decade-long Communist party rule and changed the political scenario of the state that this land belongs to. This is the only short fiction film that has been made on this subject and one which has captured actual visuals of the concerned land. Written by Moinak Guho See less
