The Last Hop(e) - Film on frogs in Western Ghats

Embark a journey with C R Naik & Clinton Vaz, people like you and me who could do their best to save the frogs of Western Ghats, India.
India is a country where traditionally the common man has lived in harmony with the natural environment. But, over the last few decades, modernization and unplanned urbanization have spread their roots; forests are shrinking and wildlife is constantly subjected to an onslaught of mindless developmental activities. In such a scenario what is the fate of an animal that has been omnipresent in the fabric of Indian society- the frog?
Is it the last hop for frogs or will the common man reconnect with the natural world to usher in some lasting hope?
