[Reader-list] Tiger- the death chronicles

[ravi agarwal]

Dear all

this is an announcement of a film screening of a film which for the first time places the tiger in a 'human' habitat and in the midst of a 'development' debate rather than the classic 'nat geographic' category. It takes the issue head on is is outspoken in the way it does it.

Tiger, the symbol of India. One of the most charismatic animals to walk the face of the earth. Faces it's most severe crisis today. Its prey, habitat and the animal itself are being decimated. 
Tiger-the death chronicles, explores this crisis.
Traveling through tiger hotspots like Sariska, Panna and Buxa, the film attempts to unravel the nuts and bolts of the crisis. It looks at states like Madhya Pradesh, Orissa and Goa and how they maybe trading their tigers and their forests, for more economic revenue. The film maps the curious case of a mining project in the heart of a tiger habitat in Orissa. It also highlights the positive work being done in reserves like Corbett and up in the BR Hills, of Karnataka.
Tiger- the death chronicles in 63 minutes, encapsulates 30 years of conservation attitude in this country. For the first time ever, a film joins diverse voices, from tiger scientists and conservationists to ordinary citizens, to attempt a brutal and an honest assessment of the present and the future of the Indian tiger and it's habitat.
