Graziers: The Last of Their Generations Review

'Graziers' is a documentary about people in India who are dependant on animals, i.e. raising herds and selling the milk to make their living. This documentary gives us an exclusive glimpse into the lifestyle of these people – their successes, their struggles, and the realities of living a relatively disconnected life.
