In Maharashtra's Gadchiroli district, Lalsu bravely exposes the environmental and cultural impacts of mining. Shockingly, 21 tribals from 70 villages are arrested for protesting against injustice. Protest, their sole voice, is under threat as the government’s heavy-handed suppression of dissent intensifies, revealing a disturbing pattern. This documentary not only chronicles the Madia tribe's fight for justice and land but also serves as a stark commentary on systemic oppression and the curbing of essential voices in their struggle.
