An exploration of the unspoiled, primitive peoples in a remote section of the Third World, STILL THE CHILDREN ARE HERE is produced by the breakthrough Indian director Mira Nair (MONSOON WEDDING and VANITY FAIR). The film is a portrait of the life of the Garos tribe of Meghalaya in Northern India. Though much of the country has been industrialized and heavily Westernized, these isolated rice farmers seem to have a timeless purity, still living off the land as they have for 6,000 years. Exquisite cinematography and a fluid soundtrack of world music add to the film's hypnotic tone; the mood of timelessness is masterfully captured. Yet, this is more than just a beautifully filmed, educational movie. By fully engaging with her subjects and allowing them to reconstruct and reenact their own experiences, director Dinaz Stafford delves deeper, exploring universal human consciousness and ultimately, the fundamental questions of existence. Though the daily rituals of washing, farming, and eating display an agrarian innocence, emotional dramas and conflicts, such as a rise in male alcoholism and frustration due to a lack of material goods, hint at the slow, damaging infiltration of modern consciousness.
