Synopsis
This masterful Punjabi drama won Best Director, Best Cinematography and Best Film at the prestigious International Film Festival of India, the oldest festival in the world. Based on the 1976 novel, it examines the battle between Indian farmers and their landlords, and a strike held by nearby rickshaw pullers. Time Out Mumabi said, “one indelible image follows another… [and offers] a side of Punjab that rarely makes it to the big screen.”
