A WOMAN PREVAILS.
Indian wildlife filmmaker Rita Banerji whirls in a tour de force crisscrossing her vast homeland. She fights for biodiversity and against poaching.

On her journey, she experiences dangerous animal encounters and touching births of countless sea turtles. And she reaches out to connect with former hunters and poachers.
