The marginal farmers of the coast are weaving a tale of resilience and grit. Every step—harvesting, threshing, and drying the paddy—feels like an inevitable part of a never-ending cycle.
The dark skies above, the salty air around, and the unyielding demand for survival entwine their toil.
In these moments of threshing the grain, glimmers of hope light up their faces. All life’s struggles and uncertainties culminate in a single goal: to ensure a good harvest that will bring peace to their families.
They know that their relentless efforts today are the cornerstone of tomorrow’s security. When the grains finally dry under the sun, it feels as if the ceaseless journey of life itself has triumphed.
