|a An intimate portrayal of a Mahadalit family, continues to be thought provoking for its depiction of caste oppression within Dalit communities. Beasts of Burden opens with Arrokyam, a middle-aged woman, and her family organising a trip to church hoping it will fix their problems. Arrokyam is deeply perturbed by the socio-economic shifts she senses. She wants to hold on to the old order of the caste system where roles and exchange rates were predetermined. Increasingly, Arrokyam and her husband Savuri find themselves burdened with more work but their rations drastically cut down. They face the worst of the economic hardships because they are Mahadalit, the most marginalized among Dalits, serving a community of agricultural bonded labourers.
