The Fakirani Jats are a nomadic community who have traveled for centuries along the western coast of India and Pakistan with the Kharai, a special breed of sea-going camel unique to this region. Today, both the Fakirani and the Kharai are on the verge of extinction. Our main character is Adam Abdrehman, the head of one of the last truly nomadic Fakirani Jat families. Nearly 200 of his camels have died in the last three years, the animals devastated by a lack of food and the choking of their traditional migratory routes by the unchecked and often illegal industrial expansion in the region. Adam’s eldest son, Ismael, insists the family must sell the remaining camels to build a new life for themselves. Adam faces a choice – lose his beloved camels or his family? This film speaks to a number of questions confronting India today: What are we prepared to sacrifice in the name of economic development and growth? Which ways of life can be sacrificed? What ecosystems merit preservation? What connections to the land, and which types of traditional knowledge are we prepared to sever for the sake of industrialization?
