One Thousand Black Umbrellas

About this movie

Sawitri is a tenacious and courageous environmental activist fighting against the privatization of water in her village. In that village, water that once flowed freely and was the right of the residents is now becoming scarce and is being controlled by corporations and certain individuals. Sawitri’s struggle to defend the community’s rights to natural resources has attracted widespread public attention, even from international media. However, the path she takes is not an easy one; she faces various conspiracies, serious threats, and a dilemmatic internal conflict between being a hero for the villagers and protecting other interests.
