Timbaktu (2012)

A land where the soil has started to breathe again. A village that does not exist on the map. A people.who celebrate life. A no-where; no-where land - When a small farming community in South India decided to switch from their decades-old practice of chemical agriculture to organic farming; little did they know that they were planting the seeds of a silent revolution. By showcasing the exemplary efforts of farmers of a tiny village in Andhra Pradesh; the film explores critical issues of food security and sovereignty. At its heart; it looks at the relationship that a farmer shares with her land; her seeds and raises vital questions about food; the very essence of human life.
