किसान मुक्ति संसद - Kisan Mukti Sansad

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=4TULeAV600c&t=8s

With the agrarian distress reaching its peak under the present BJP government, thousands of farmers across India gathered at Parliament Street, Delhi on 20th and 21st of November 2017 to demand a one-time complete waiver of farmer loans and fair prices for their produce. The agitation was launched under the umbrella of All India Kisan Sangharsh Coordination Committee whereby 184 farmer groups participated in the protest. They were protesting against the cost versus income imbalance presently being faced by the farmers in the country, leading to suicides and indebtedness. One of the highlights of the protest was the preparation of a draft bill, encompassing the two key demands that were debated by a farmer’s parliament. Farmers demanded a legally binding assurance of fair and remunerative prices through measures like higher procurement, deficiency price payment, appropriate trade policy and punitive measures for traders purchasing farm produce at below support prices. The farmers have reiterated that if their demands are not met they will follow it up with militant action.

Pratirodh Ke Swar

We at Anhad Films believe that the poets, writers and artists, film-makers have always stood up for the oppressed and the marginalized.  We see art as an important medium for protest and many artists both in past as well as present have used their art to encourage protest. Pratirodh ke Swar is our attempt to bring forth poetry and prose from across the country which focuses on Freedom of Expression, Dissent and protest.


We begin the series with the poems of eminent scientist and poet Gauhar Raza.

Saahas Ke Chaar Adhyay: Profiles in Courage


Our film “Saahas Ke Chaar Adhyay” records the life, struggle and ultimate triumph of four outstanding individuals from diverse backgrounds and different parts of India who braved great odds–such as intimate partner violence, domestic violence, discrimination at the workplace and patriarchal mindsets; to finally reclaim their sense of agency. It is our attempt to honour and showcase stories of people who stood up and took action to counter Gender-Based Violence in India. The main objective of the film was to celebrate the courage shown by these extra-ordinary women and men to not only inspire but also give strength to others who have faced similar forms of violence. The film was released and screened at the WISCOMP Saahas Awards Ceremony 2017 where women and men who have faced or witnessed Gender-Based Violence and have raised their voice against it were facilitated and awarded.
