The Voice of Conscience ()
Documentary · 1h 28m
The film, “Zameer” (The Voice of Conscience), is built around the experiences of women who were drawn into movements of resistance as they have unfolded in India since the new millennium and were jailed for their participation in movements defending lands, livelihoods and ways of living that were being eroded since the turn of the millennium. As lands, forests and sea coasts are turned into battlegrounds for “development” women are drawn into movements to defend their right to their homelands, their own histories and their own understanding of an organic way of being. Jailed for their activities women experience violence from the prison system but they also find solidarities and deep friendships created and sustained in the time of incarceration which become life-long bonds.
