Ambi Jiji always planted her crops on soil where forests have been burnt. This jhum field would then be abandoned and left to regenerate into a forest and a new one burnt. Increasingly jhum fields are being turned into orchards which provide cash and food security. Through Ambi Jiji and her daughters, we see the passing of a way of life in a remote village in Meghalaya.

What happens when remote, isolated mountain communities come face to face with globalization? Jardhar gaon, a village in the Hemval valley of Garhwal, led an isolated, egalitarian existence until a series of events forced it, into joining the market economy. This short documentary, based entirely on local perspectives, reflects on the process of change - what triggers the shift to modernisation and what impact it has on the personal, social and environmental spaces.

Governments have been brought down, a separate state has come into existence and leaders have lost their powers because of this phenomenon.  Mautam, which means famine associated with the mass dying of bamboo, is a twin curse that has the potential to devastate the entire area.  Superstitions, politics, science and agriculture all come together to make Mautam.
