Jalsindhi Update
Hello from India. We're here in Mumbai filming our new documentary (yup, the same one we've been working on since 2004), so took a train, bus and boat to the Narmada Valley to visit Luharia and his family, stars of our 2002 film, Drowned Out.
Things have gone from very bad to even worse in the valley. For the latest news of the campaign to stop the dams, see the Friends of Narmada website.

Cate Blanchett, Christian Slater and Anthony Minghella forced to watch Drowned Out as it's been nominated for a British Indie Film Award and they're (part of) the jury. Just another normal day.
