This film follows the human and medical fight against Delhi’s deadly heatwaves. In 2024, the city recorded 30 heatwave days, and heatstroke cases skyrocketed from an average of 755 a year to over 52,000. Outdoor workers bear the brunt, with no choice but to work under the scorching sun.
Through expert insights and on-ground footage, it explores the Delhi Heat Action Plan — from establishing emergency heatstroke wards at AIIMS and RML Hospital to the life-saving immersion cooling method that rapidly lowers body temperature. A stark look at climate change’s toll and the urgent measures needed to protect the vulnerable.
