The Fisherman and the Banker

Filmed over a period of 10 years, this is the story of how a group of courageous fishermen in India’s Gulf of Kutch join forces with human rights lawyers in Washington, D.C. to take on one of the world’s most powerful institutions, the World Bank Group, after it funded a coal-fired power plant on their coast.
