Anhe Ghore Da Daan (Eng: Alms in the Name of a Blind Horse) is a Punjabi film directed by Gurvinder Singh, based on the 1976 novel of the same name by Gurdial Singh.[1] Both the novel and the movie derive their title from an ancient myth associated with the churning of the ocean, in which Vishnu had been less than fair in his dispensation to the Asuras, supposedly the progenitors of latter-day Dalits. The movie portrays the plight and problems of Dalit farmers in Punjab and their conflict with the upper caste landlords. The film won National Awards for Best Direction, Cinematography and Best Feature Film in Punjabi at the 59th National Film Awards of India.

The film was shot in and around Bathinda in February and March of 2011.


Plot

The film is set in a village on the outskirts of Bathinda City, where the Dalit villagers work in the fields of the local landlord. It is a village where Dalit people are trying hard to make peace with their existence. Daily rituals betray their simmering anger and their helplessness. The landlord has sold his plots to an industry that has demolished the house of one of the villagers who refuses to vacate it. The elderly farmer's son is a rickshaw puller in the nearby town. The rickshaw pullers have gone on a strike that has turned violent. Both father and son are equally clueless about their futures.[2]
