Info

Nearly 2, 00, 000 farmers have committed suicide in India over the last 10 years. But the mainstream media hardly reflects this. Nero´s Guests is a story about India’s agrarian crisis and the growing inequality seen through the work of the Rural Affairs Editor of Hindu newspaper, P Sainath. Through sustained coverage of the farm crisis, Sainath and his colleagues created the national agenda, compelling a government in denial to take notice and act. Through his writings and lectures, Sainath makes us confront the India we don’t want to see, and provokes us to think about who ‘Nero’s Guests’ are in today’s world.

Nero's Guests Audience Reviews

WasAnnon Slow pace in the most part of the movie.
Lawbolisted Powerful
Protraph Lack of good storyline.
Portia Hilton Blistering performances.
mukeshbhavsar A must watch documentary which you will never forget!! It is not just a documentary but an classic piece of art. The last 'join the club' and switching off bulb scene touches you somewhere deep. The poetry made by farmers is used at perfect spaces and become very influential. This has always been one of my favorite documentary. It leaves huge impact every time I watch the documentary. Words of Sainath are harsh sometimes but he brings out many of the open secrets in his unique style. After watching this documentary I have read book Everybody loves good drought and I was stunned. The amount of research Sainath does and his dedication is superb. His ability to go to the depth and bring the truth is amazing! Great job Ms. Bhatia and Sainath sir. Salute!
Karan Sehgal Poignant. Focused. 'Relevant'*If for nothing else, but sheer humanity. I have never seen a more soul-stirring ending.A wonderfully crafted documentary by Ms. Deepa Bhatia (of Taare Zameen Par and Stanley Ka Dabba fame), skillfully capturing the nuances of Sainath's (Rural Affairs Editor, The Hindu) resourcefulness.The originality lies not in the content but the treatment. Perhaps, as a mark of shame, we might not be able to distinguish between the two.Note: *Relevance shall be dictated by your own conscience. Mine urged me to write it. I shall wait for yours?
