The narrative highlights the armed insurrection in Bastar, distraught adivasis from the mineral-rich hills of Odisha who have decided to protest with their axes and songs as well as the protests by Punjabi peasants who have made Bhagat Singh as their revolutionary hero.
Red Ant Dream chronicles incidents and people who are often overlooked and whose struggles are rarely spoken about as the focus lies on urban centres of power.
