1st Stills from "Where the Clouds Come Home"

Here are a few taster stills from the uranium mining documentary, "Where the Clouds Come Home":

Spillity Lyngdoh Langrin, who gave permission for uranium testing on her land 20 years ago. She lost her two daughters to mysterious diseases, which she blames on the pollution from the experimental mines.



Domiasiat, the village at the centre of the mining debate. The Indian government and UCIL want to mine here, but Spillity, the sole landowner, refuses to grant them access. Many other villages from the surrounding area have given their permission, believing mining will bring development. Spillity's land amounts to almost half of the area designated for mining.



Taking me to see the graves of their loved ones who died during the time of the experimental mining, the villagers told me, "we still feel their loss so deeply." These men buried siblings, children and grandchildren.
