Synopsis

This documentary deals with the issue of "Maoist insurgency in India".[2][3] It focuses on the Maoists in Bastar in Chhattisgarh, tribals fighting against industrialists in Niyamgiri in Odisha, and protestors acting in memory of the Leftist revolutionary Bhagat Singh in Punjab.[4] This film shows the people of these regions resisting what they believe to be oppression.[5] [6] [7] Red Ant Dream was financed by funds given by an International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam Fund grant and a prize from the Busan International Film Festival.[8]

Reviews

Sheikh Saaliq, editor of The Vox Kashmir, in one of his reviews in The Express Tribune said, "This film is a saga of heroism and sacrifice in the face of a brutal enemy camouflaged as the world’s “largest democracy”. Red Ant dream is a moving meditation." [9]
