The documentary film "The Man Village" explores the tensions between rural villagers in central India and wildlife conservation efforts as tigers and big cats leave nearby reserves in search of territory and prey on the villagers' cattle. The film aims to give voice to the villagers living in fear of attacks and their struggle between basic safety needs and wildlife protection policies. The small independent production company has exhausted their own funds and is turning to crowdfunding to complete the documentary telling this important untold story through character-based storytelling.
