Sugarcanes, before it becomes sugar, before it gives some people The Sweet Life.
The sweet stalks of sugarcanes passing the hands of the underpaid migrant laborers called sacadas.
A lot of studies had been made about the plight these workers. Labor groups untiringly marching in the streets fighting for reforms. A lot of reform agendas proposed and denied, some implemented, some are not. A couple of movies had been made and documented the poverty and struggles...it somehow opened the eyes of many but some remained deaf and mute.
A sad reality behind the sweet life.
