"Mossé" D: Divya Hansda, IN 2016

Running time: 2’37”

A small boy lived in the jungle where living creatures and plants sustained each other without disturbing the environment. The film speaks about the issues of displacement of the wild animals. It was very interesting to hear jungle stories from this little protagonist who lived near Rajmahal hills. He lost his parents when a confused elephant strayed from it's herd ramping through the mud walls of his village. After losing his parents he wandered around feeding on crabs and rice flakes. He eventually came to the plains to sell forest products.
