In the fragile hydrogeological region of Narmada valley, a sizeable number of affluent farmers start to grow onions. Being a highly lucrative commercial crop, this trend is soon followed by the local farmers. But onion is a water-intensive crop and when the cash income is the target, what would be the impact of this new practice on the depleting groundwater table in the region? This film explores that question.
