Take One Action is excited to present Farming the Revolution in collaboration with Tripod and the Landworkers’ Alliance.

This film, by Golden Thread director Nishtha Jain, is an exploration of solidarity, and after the film there will be a panel discussion, with BSL interpretation, to interrogate what we in Scotland can learn from this film, and from movement building in India and beyond.

Farming the Revolution 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 – joining forces at massive protest sites that sprung up across the borders of Delhi. The film invites us to experience the small-scale struggles and giant spirit of this historic farmers ’movement, and to think about what it means in our own local context.
