 ECO - Dharma
Unmindful of the modern environmental crusaders, some of the indigenous tribes
and communities of India have been living in harmony with nature and all its
creatures for centuries. In fact, there are communities which have “protection of wildlife and environment” enshrined in their tenets and consider it their DHARMA to protect trees or the creatures inhabiting their villages.
Award winning freelance director from Poland, Malgorzata Skiba visits one
such village to meet the members of the BISHNOI community who prefer to die
than let anyone hunt down the beautiful Chinkara deer that abound the jungles
around their village.
“ECO DHARMA” is the winner of the first prize in the
short film category at the Rodos International Films & Visual
Arts Festival.
