The village of Aagaswadi is located in the Satara District, in the hills of Mann Maharashtra, India—the epicenter of a drought-prone region. Due to ongoing drought, and hence, lack of livelihood options, the young people in the village are forced to abandon their home for city life, leaving behind the very young and the elderly. With neither sufficient drinking water nor irrigation facilities, a desperate Bhimrao digs a well to quench his and his farm’s thirst.
