Buddha Weeps in Jadugoda

A documentary film prosecuted about Uranium pollution of Jadugoda which took 3 and 1/2 years for Mr. Shriprakash, a film director, to produce. It won the grand-pix of the 8th Earth Vison (sponsored by: EarthVison organizing committee, supported by: Environmental Agency, Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the MITI, etc.) held in Japan in March, 2000. It was also on air in a NHK broadcasting via satellite.
The film documentaried about health damages that tribes suffer faithfully, and recorded them rising up against it.
The video is for rent, so please contact us if you have any interest. We also have a pamphlet (\1000-) containing a sinario of the film (both in English and Japanese) and some explanation about the reality of the damage.

A Comment of Director Shriprakash

"I think that this award is an award of the weak curently troubled by such frontier district in the world. Since these film media are depended on technology, sometimes the weak should be just remain passive and are not easy to send their message. However, I tried to stand in the weak's position, not completely but as hard as I can, to produce my film earnestly at their viewpoint. It was my great pleasure that while most of the lined up works were using helicopter or refined image technology, my awkward work were permitted to people."
