The story of Rains Don’t Make Us Happy Anymore is deeply rooted in the ecological and cultural turmoil I have witnessed in my home state, nestled in the foothills of the Himalayas. Our land, once defined by its pristine rivers and harmonious coexistence with nature, is now overwhelmed by the relentless construction of hydroelectric projects. While electricity is undeniably vital, the methods employed to harness it often come at a devastating cost Massive infrastructure projects, such as the Vyasi Hydroelectric Project, sanctioned in 1970 and completed only in 2022, serve as stark reminders of this brutal transformation. The once-beautiful Jaunsari tribal village of Lohari, located on the banks of Yamuna river, was submerged with a mere 48-hour notice to its residents. Families were forced to leave behind generations of memories, relocating to a government school with their belongings, livestock, and stored pulses. Today, another 320 MW project is under construction in Lohari, leaving only one family to bear witness to the erasure of their home and heritage. Visually, the film captures the stark contrasts between the natural beauty of the Himalayas and the scars left by construction. The soundscape is a blend of the haunting echoes of blasting mountains and the serene whispers of rivers, now silenced. These elements combine to evoke a sense of loss, urgency, and resilience This is not just a story of one village or one state; it is a reflection of the broader climate imbalance and cultural disconnection that affects us all.
