Peepli Live is a satire, a black comedy about rural life in India. In a tiny corner of a giant country a poor farmer is about to lose everything. His brother has a plan to win it all back! Natha (Omkar Das Manikpuri) a poor pot-smoking farmer from Peepli village in the heart of rural India is about to lose his plot of land due to an unpaid government loan. A quick fix to the problem is the very same government's program that aids the families of indebted farmers who have committed suicide. The family is about to lose their land because they are unable to repay a loan, when, they hear of a government programme which offers the family of any farmer committing suicide a compensation of rupees 100,000 ($2000). ‘Peepli Live’ tries to tackle some of the real-life problems of farmer suicides in the rural parts of India. The land ownership problems have been portrayed in a very humorous and witty fashion.
