Ranthamore is a spectacular national park, located in the north western jungles of India. A paradise for wildlife and especially tigers. Valmik Thupar as a young man travelled to Ranthambore and became obsessed with the tigers. He spent the next next half century studying them and dedicating his life to protecting them.  Using archive that Valmik and Mike Birkhead had collected over 50 years, they were able tell intimate stories of the different tiger families that lived in Ranthambore. I filmed interviews with Valmik for this film, and extra shots that were needed to connect the archive footage.
