Sacrifice of Babulal Bhuiya
Movies 1.5 hrs August 06, 2013 7:00 pm Tuesday
Babulal Bhuiya Ki Qurbani is a poetic documentary about the tribals around Bihar's Mailgora collieries, who survive by recycling the pits' coal slurry.
In February 1981, Babulal Bhuiya, one of the workers, was shot dead by the Industrial Security Force. The film goes into the circumstances of his death via covering Communist Party rallies in the area. Much of the story is intercut with painterly shots on the body of an anonymous male worker in the quarry.
The film is being screened by the Hyderabad chapter of RangDe, which screens socially responsible documentaries.
