Baheliya’s Trap
Empowering Voices, Envisioning Change
At Earthcare Outreach Trust (ECO), we believe in the transformative power of storytelling. Our mission is to empower the youth with filmmaking skills that not only narrate their stories but also inspire action for a sustainable future. Through our hands-on training, we nurture a new generation of storytellers who are equipped to raise awareness and drive environmental advocacy.
Baheliya’s Trap: A Story of Hope and Resilience
Baheliya’s Trap (Baheliya ka Jaal) is a film that delves into the lives of the Baheliya children, whose heritage is entwined with the forests of Central India. Once stigmatized for their ancestral practices, these children are now on a journey of education and self-discovery. The film, supported by the Ministry of Environment and Forest as part of the Pardhi Project, highlights their struggles against societal labels and their pursuit of dreams, offering a narrative that resonates with hope and resilience.
One of a Kind Project
Led by the passionate Kavita Das Gupta and Krishnendu Bose, this project is more than a film—it’s a movement. By giving a voice to the Baheliya community, we aim to dismantle prejudices and build bridges toward understanding and acceptance. Join us in this endeavor to support these children as they navigate the dichotomy of their world, and be a part of the ripple effect that fosters a greener, more inclusive future.
