Event Details
The Arabian Sea, a portion of the Indian Ocean that was a major trade route cine the time of Caesar and before, has been fished by the Koli caste of India for millennia, practically. Now the sea is dying, a potential casualty of climate change.
Bombay fishermen Rakesh and Ganesh are inheritors of the Koli knowledge system of harvesting the sea following the moon and the tides. Rakesh has kept faith in the traditional fishing methods; Ganesh has instead embraced technology.
“Against the Tide” (2023, 97 min) a documentary directed by Sarvnik Kaur, depicts environmental disaster with an intimate lens.
