Ashwani's passion to save wild leopards brings him close to White Tail, the mother leopard of Shimla. He films her with his rudimentary camera and screens his films in the villages around Shimla. However, his journey also brings him face to face with some heart breaking happenings; occurring as a result of human-leopard conflict.
Lakhpat Singh Rawat is the official shooter of the Uttarakhand Forest department, having killed over 50 leopards that were perceived to be man eaters. While he feels happy to save the children and adult victims from the marauding leopards, he is also uneasy about his role in brutally eliminating these beautiful, lethal, slender and spotted beasts!
This probing documentary navigates the uncharted hill territories of Shimla and Uttarakhand, trying to get into the psyches of humans and leopards. Is there any solution to this critical conflict that has been raging for over a century?
