Neighbours Of The Beast

Relentless poaching practices in the heartland of India stripped Panna's Forest of their last tiger by 2006. Stricken by crushing guilt and the efforts of the inhabitants, a miracle was observed. Tigers were back. With the renewed guardianship of its human allies, the noble beasts once more prowl this lush land. Set in the aftermath of the country's most successful tiger project, the narrator goes on a contemplative journey into the abstractions of this hidden realm. In deep conversations with the guileless natives, the forest reveals its eccentric truths. Steeped in rich culture, the tribes cherish this jungle they call home. Sustained yet striking imagery draws us to meditate with nature itself. Only to discover how the spirit-king of the wild, the Tiger, has created a thriving kingdom.
