Synopsis:
In the face of widespread ecological destruction,
social injustice, economic deprivation, there are
powerful countercurrents. 'Ordinary' people in several
parts of India are resisting the disruption of their
lives, as also constructing alternatives in the form
of sustainable farming, community-led ecotourism and
conservation, revival of crafts, activity-based
learning, decentralised water harvesting, local
governance and direct democracy. They illustrate
various petals in a 'Flower of Transformation', with a
core of ethical values like solidarity, diversity,
freedom, self-reliance, and respect of the commons.
The film is produced by Vikalp Sangam, a platform
to share the best stories of viable alternatives to
India's unequal and ecologically destructive
development paradigm. Know more at http://www.vikalpsangam.org
