The Harvest

The Plight of Field Workers in Italy

Gurwinder comes from Punjab, and has been working for years on a farm in a small town not far from Rome. Since he first came in Italy, he's been living with the rest of the Sikh community in Latina province. Hardeep is also Indian but was born and raised in Italy where she works as a cultural mediator in Rome.

Hardeep is trying to free herself from the memories of a family that emigrated in another age, while Gurwinder is forced, to take methamphetamines to handle his heavy workload, so he can send money back to India.

THE HARVEST is a docu-musical that, for the first time, combines documentary and traditional Punjabi choreographies, to show the humiliation of the workers in the fields.

Official Selection at the Delhi International Film Festival and at the HumanDoc Warsaw Film Festival.
