Featurama 4 - Pharma and a farmer

Journal Entry: Sat Apr 26, 2008, 3:54 AM
Conclusion abt my work 'The Domain'__________________
________________________________________________________________________________________________

I started to think of this sketch of mine,
' The Domain' after coming to know / following the incidents that happened here.

It is that, in a part of my state, farmers had to fight for their lands and their source of living that have been snatched by the powerful pharmaceutical corporate giants and the political forces. The government had to provide 1000 acres of land TO these pharmaceutical companies (FROM these farmers) without properly providing the farmers appropriate compensation and mostly seizing their land by force and killing or jailing them by local political forces and rowdy sheeters. It may sound like a typical south Indian superhero movie but that's the truth in real life where there is no super hero to save their families who lost their acres of land and lost their loved ones in period of an overnight to a week's time. One part of the society is gaining benefits of industrialisation in this area, employment, commercialization and in other ways are damaging the environmental part by producing harmful chemicals from these manufacturing units or whatever is set up there. And in the process a lot of people have to lose everything to build this for the benefit of some other part of the same society. A biased growth. And a failure of their efforts to protect their very own property. Should every victory and success involve slavery and crime?!? If so, do we call it progress!?


Follow this [link] for the story. Here is this slightly censored news of the actual crime that went into the making of this industrialisation. :P [link]
and also check out this,

In this regard, I wanna feature a couple of artists/photographers
who work in this direction whether exactly or not.

Take this story to a documentary filmmaker's chat sites and see if you can get some attention.

The story deserves to be told.

You are welcome Trishy!
This is huge and complex. Solutions are to be found and implemented in various ways and levels from the end consumers like us to the industrialists jointly with political support.. .
