Event Description : ENVIRONMENT FILM : CMS Vatavaran presents "God on the Edge" 

Synopsis: The death of seven elephants - three calves, three mothers and a tusker on 23rd September, 2010, in North West Bengal, devastated an elephant lover. He wondered if the Indians, who worship elephant as Elephant God, ever realize the ordeal the wild elephant had to go through even for traversing from one of its habitat patch to the other. His search to seek the answer to the problem led him to a sixty year old Mahut – a handler of domesticated elephants - who had been managing wild elephants through the help of his pet elephants for forty years. ‘God on the Edge’ unfolds the problem and prospects of conservation of wild elephants in India.
