Miles to Go

English/58mins/2003
Producer/Director: Elephant Corridor Films/Nina Subramani
Commissioned by: Greenpeace India, Bangalore

Subject Focus: A thousand Bhopals are occuring in slow motion all over India.

Summary: A bus journey across India – 7 states, 6000 kilometers in just 60 days. But this would be unlike any other journey. The chosen destinations will never feature in a tourist brochure of “must – see”, this is the story of India’s forgotten backyards, of people brushed under the carpet of indifference and apathy; a story of individuals fighting all odds for their basic rights – a story of a thousand revolutions in a thousand Bhopal.

Producer’s/Director’s Profile: Nina Subramani worked with Student Sea Turtle Conservation Network in Chennai. Today she is committed to making films on environmental and development issues. Her films include Kalpavriksha – Legacy of the Forests, on medicinal plants and TwoPpeople One Movement comparing people’s movements in Europe and India.
