In the 1970s, they were displaced from their nomadic life in the forests by the conservation ethic and by the state keen on \u2018civilising\u2019 them. Homeless and lacking in any skills other than hunting, they wandered from place to place in search of a new life. A small group landed up on the western fringes of Bangalore, where they, along with other homeless people, formed a squatter\u2019s colony or slum. This ethnography is made up of brief portraits of a few of the families who live in this slum and explores their personal lives as well as their relationship with the city.\n\n\n\nSignificant Awards/ Screenings\n\n\u00A0\n\n\n\u00A0Sardinia International Ethnographic Film Festival\n\n\n\n\n\n\nProducer\n\n\u00A0(PSBT)Public Service Broadcasting Trust\n\n\n\n\n\u00A0"^^<http://www.w3.org/2001/XMLSchema#string>
