The documentary, directed by Nishtha Jain, invites viewers to witness how India's farmers cultivated resistance. The screening and Q&A were co-hosted by the Hari Sharma Foundation, South Asian Network for Secularism and Democracy (SANSAD), and SFU's Institute for the Humanities.
The experience was surreal, watching the documentary so far from home, on stolen lands, and reconnecting with my homeland through collective gasps, giggles, and tears.
