The Nomad’s Land - Van Gujjars (2024)
Directed by Yashasvi Juyal
“Virtual Bharat. A 1000-film journey, one story at a time”
Documentary · 12m
Amid Himalayan bugyals, a turbaned herder’s call guides cattle and memory. This film follows the Van Gujjars—Muslim vegetarian nomads migrating between plains and hills—through sound, ritual, and resilience. As forest laws threaten their movement, an ancient symbiosis with nature endures, speaking a quiet language of coexistence against modern boundaries and preserving identity through seasons of loss, song, fire, and migration.
