The non-feature film by Aribam Syam Sharma explores the lush forests of Manipur, home to over 400 orchid species, many of them unique to the region. With a climate ideal for their growth, Manipur hosts 70% of South-East Asia's orchid varieties, which are highly valued worldwide. Orchids hold a special place in Manipuri culture, cherished and respected. However, deforestation now threatens their survival, prompting conservation efforts by the Manipur Forest Department.
