Under The Open Sky

In the desert lands of Western India, against the backdrop of a rapidly industrialising country, the charming and charismatic family of Ahmed, Sakina and their five children are forced to give up their traditional way of life as nomadic camel-herders and adapt to a 'settled' existence as daily labourers, spending their days loading carts of sand in the pursuit of a few hundred rupees. In a story that spans over five years, this film invites the viewer to breathe the same air as the camel-herders of Kutch, whose future is being suffocated by our rapidly modernising world.
