Simon Chambers delves into the information war surrounding a dispute between a local tribe and corporate giant over their attempts to mine the tribe’s sacred mountain in Orissa, India. Richards finds himself in a confusing milieu of seemingly unhelpful locals, corporate lies, rumours of assassination, and internet propaganda. Caught between the claims of development officers and local activists Richards unwittingly becomes an actor in the struggle for Niyamgiri Mountain. Cowboys In India is a refreshingly honest film that raises important questions about development and how often Western business overlooks local concerns in the name of progress, and profit.
