This month, we’re screening Fireflies in the Abyss, directed by Chandrasekhar Reddy, which follows the lives of boys and men working in the coal-mines of Northeast India, many of them migrant workers from Nepal and Bangladesh. 

The documentary is available to stream from 1 May (Thursday) to 8 May (Thursday)
