During the day, she is a simple 32-year-old tribal woman, weaving leaves together to make plates that would fetch her a fair amount of money at the local market. But as night falls, Jamuna Tudu turns into a fierce fighter on a mission. A mission to protect the jungles of her village. A winner of Godfrey Phillips Bravery Award, Jamuna has managed to ward off the forest mafia in her village of Muthurkam in the state of Jharkand and preserve the trees that are a source of livelihood for a major population there.
