The drastic decline in the number of wild tigers at large in the Indian sub-continent reflects the general disappearance of a great deal of wildlife there.
Philip Wayre has travelled widely in India and Bhutan to film some of the remaining creatures of the vanishing forests and to observe some of the valiant efforts being made to conserve them in the face of a desperate struggle for living space.

A ballet in three episodes by Maurice Bejart
In traditional Hinduism, Bhakti means devotional love. In this film Maurice Bejart has taken three of the most popular gods and created a romantic episode round each one, based on Hindu mythology.
Performed to traditional Indian music, spectacular dancing is contrasted with sequences shot in Brussels, Benares and Madras, and Indian mythology contrasted with the brash Western world of supermarkets, skyscrapers and mass communication.
