About

Petani Bukan Pemalas

Sinopsis Filem
Azhar merupakan seorang pesawah yang berwawasan, rajin dan gigih berusaha. Beliau berasal dari Alor Pongsu, sebuah pekan kecil di utara Perak yang dikelilingi sawah padi. Beliau terlibat dalam pekerjaan sebagai petani sejak berumur 16 tahun lagi. Kini berusia 52 tahun Azhar cukup berpengalaman dan sudah masak dengan pelbagai isu dan masalah di sawahnya. Eksploitasi harga benih padi sah yang mahal dan kualiti yang teruk yang berlaku hampir setiap kali tiba musim menanam mengecewakan beliau. Azhar mengurangkan kebergantungan terhadap benih komersial dengan memproses benih padinya sendiri di rumah yang merupakan ilmu pertanian tradisional yang semakin lama ditinggalkan sejak penghasilan benih secara komersial digalakkan kerajaan. Marah dan tertekan dengan tekanan pendapatan yang semakin berkurangan serta kos yang semakin meningkat serta tuduhan yang mengatakan petani malas dan tidak berpengetahuan, Azhar berazam untuk menuntut keadilan dan melakukan perubahan terhadap nasib pesawah seperti beliau bersama-sama dengan sahabat-sabahat beliau.

Film Synopsis
A rural smallholding padi farmer from Alor Pongsu, Azhar rues the bitterness of an exploitative system where farmers like him are shortchanged with expensive commercial seeds that increasingly yield poor harvests despite all their hard work and dedication. Angered by the declining harvests and rising costs, Azhar takes matters into his own hands by cultivating rice seeds, an age-old farming practice long since forgotten after the government started aggressively marketing commercial seeds. However, he faces a battle to correct government-sown misconceptions of farmers being failures due to laziness and unwillingness to learn modern techniques. Matters come to a head and Azhar must decide it’s time for farmers to band together to seek justice and demand change to their common livelihoods.
