Synopsis:
Chivati is a story of a closely knit, humorous community that has been migrating since generations, every year to work as Sugarcane Labourers. Vitthal belongs to the young generation that gets educated but political apathy and lazy governance keep them socially backward. Even in today’s Information Age, Vitthal is forced to rely on a life threatening occupation like sugarcane cutting for survival. The film traverses Vitthal’s journey along with the rest of the sugarcane labourers where they have to live like an outcast, sacrificing their self-respect, enduring hardships. It shows the bitter lives of these people, who satisfy the sweet cravings of the whole world.
