Rice without
rain
Seventeen year old, Jinda lives
in a poor village where the tax rate is really high. The only way
this small village has to pay for their taxes is through their harvest,
but because the village is having a drought, there is barely enough
food to feed the village. Her family, along with the village have
to struggle to survive. Jinda's father, being head of the village,
has to find a way to pay the tax men. Since the villagers do not own
the land they live on and have to rent it from others, it is impossible
not to pay them. As all this is going on, a group of University Students
are traveling by the village and are welcomed to stay a bit. The students
fill the villagers' heads with thoughts of strikes and defending themselves.
In participating in this the villages life is put in great danger.
