Moving Upstream – Ganga

This documentary, filmed on a walk along River Ganga, is part of Veditum India Foundation’s Moving Upstream project. The walk took place between June 2016 and April 2017, starting from Ganga Sagar in West Bengal and finishing at Gangotri in Uttarakhand.

Initiated with an intention to document the river and life of the riparian community of River Ganga, the project attempts to amplify the voices and concerns of the river people, woven together through the medium of the walk.

The documentary film will now take centerstage in Veditum’s continued advocacy and educational efforts on issues related to rivers of India.

This project would not have been possible without the generous support of hundreds of friends, strangers & partners who supported our crowdfunding campaigns and shared their knowledge, resources and connections. But most of all, it is the people of the river who really made this film possible with their stories and who provided food, shelter and warmth without hesitation.

Misty
Sunlight falling sweeping
trees, river ran, in perfect rhythm
cleaned river beds!
from behind the shade of a tree,
you emerged wrapped me
in your arms;
few leaves hung from nude limbs 
swung in the wind like ear-
rings;
waterfall falling, force of storm,
steep decent;
April's showers,
vanished on breeze
like wisps
of early morning mists, 
thoughts of you, from
behind the
trees

Es gibt sie, die grossartigen Momente in der Covid-19 Zeit:

«Ich nehme an, die Aare wird bebadbar sein»

Daniel Koch an der Pressekonferenz des Bundesrates (Schweizer Regierung) am 16. April 2020 über die Corona Situation, zur Frage wie es denn im Sommer mit den Freibädern sei.
Damit ist der Sommer schon fast geretttet – auch wenn ich eher im Thunersee bade.

Epochs ...
River flowed, washed
sediment 
a certain peace;
Two thoughts flow by,
on the crest of
current;
One of yours, one of mine, 
held hands; 
Epochs of consolation by-
gone;You visit
now and then; the revisit;
recollection
of the breast for a pillow, aching heart, 
a distant face, sadness of this sort, 
flows on the crest of current,
two thoughts, one of yours and other 
mine
