Aamakaar tells the story of preservation. This film depicts the struggles of a small fisihing village in North Kerala that is fighting the assault on its estuary by sand mining. The villagers are also engaged in the conservation of Olive Ridley turtles that have come to their beach to nest. They make a connection between a species fast becoming extinct and the fate of a community that could face displacement.
