Director: Rishi Chandna
Language: Tamil

In October 2021, the fisherwomen of Pulicat lake, the largest brackish water lagoon in South India, organised a sumptuous meal for their politicians and bureaucrats. They planned to remind the powers-that-be of the rich biodiversity they stand to lose if they sanctioned a massive port that would pollute and all but erase the lake. It was a novel way of making a point, using food as a tool of protest.
