Watch Forest For Free
Forest
With this ecological drama, Assam’s leading director Jahnu Barua continues exploring the conflict between corrupt state politics and a determined individual (cf. Halodiya Choraye Baodhan Khaye, 1987). The forest ranger confronts illegal timber merchants and contractors on behalf of impoverished tribals. The honest ranger’s activities get him into trouble and he is constantly transferred from one post to another, to the annoyance of his wife who wants him to settle down and look after their ailing child. Eventually she supports her husband’s fight and the tribals realise they need weapons to defend themselves against rapacious outsiders.

Reviews
The film creates a perfect balance between action and depth of basic needs, in the midst of an infertile atmosphere.
There is, somehow, an interesting story here, as well as some good acting. There are also some good scenes
While it doesn't offer any answers, it both thrills and makes you think.
The story, direction, characters, and writing/dialogue is akin to taking a tranquilizer shot to the neck, but everything else was so well done.
