Synopsis

Scorching Drought (కాటేసిన కరువు) is a gripping documentary that exposes the stark reality of Telangana's farmers in the grip of an unrelenting summer drought. As the searing heat scorches the parched earth and persistent clouds refuse to deliver rain, the film ventures deep into rural Telangana, capturing communities on the brink. Raw testimonies reveal barren lands, dry borewells, inoperative pumps, and suffering cattle, highlighting a crisis beyond mere drought. With crops dying and water scarce for even drinking, farmers confront an existential crisis—battling not just economic hardship but an erosion of hope. More than a tale of drought, the film is a resounding plea for urgent change, spotlighting systemic neglect and the resilience of those who persevere for the future.
