The Unsung Trailer (2019)
28 September 2019 Factual 27 mins
The Unsung is a film on a dying tribe on the coastal region of Karnataka, the Halakki Vokkaliga. This once culturally rich tribe with a treasure trove of folk songs, passed down orally from generations is now grappling against the tide of modernisation and westernisation. With only a handful of old ladies who identify with the tribe, their traditions and cultures, the passing of these few old women will see their very culture fading away. The film touches on the struggles of the tribe, the clash between modernisation and their culture, the fight to keep their forests alive and the painstakingly long battle to be included in the Scheduled Tribe list in India.
