Shigmo in Goa is more than a festival — for many villages, it is identity.

At the heart of this vibrant celebration lies Romta-Mell, a powerful folk tradition of rhythm, music and storytelling that has travelled from village streets to competitive Shigmo parades across Goa.

But as Romta-Mell grows in popularity, questions are being asked about how this tradition has evolved over the years.

In this documentary, Goa Stories speaks to mentors and masters from Romta-Mell mandals across Goa, exploring:

• The history of competitive Shigmo parades
• The revival of Romta-Mell among the youth
• New trends and innovations in performances
• Concerns about preserving the traditional spirit
• The challenges mandals face while keeping the tradition alive

Featuring insights from:
