Event Description :
 DOC FILM "No Problem! - Six Months with the Barefoot Grandmamas"

This documentary is about the rural solar electrification project run by the Barefoot College in the village of Tilonia in Rajasthan. Here numerous illiterate rural women from all over the world, particularly Africa, are being trained as solar engineers. The film follows the story of the 2011 batch of African women as they live together in Tilonia, leaving their countries for the first time. The women live and learn together for six months without knowing each other's languages, but share a unifying goal - to become solar engineers and bring electricity to their villages. Through the stories of these women, a fascinating tale of sustainability, demystification of technology, and social inclusion unfolds.
