Welcome to girmit
Before we start our story, you will need:
- A coconut
- Some mango
- Some sugar
- A VR headset, we recommend Google Cardboard
- A small, cramped space
- A cold, wet towel
- A heater
Our story starts in India. Imagine yourself in a small village in 1846. Food is scarce. You’re hungry. But you hear there is someone in the next village offering a way out.
EAT THE COCONUT, NOW
The sea is rough
As you listen to the sound the sugar cane makes, imagine yourself cutting down sugar. For 12 hours. You cut sugar cane all day today. And you’ll cut it all day tomorrow.
Life isn’t sweet.
