Health? Hope?<\/em>. She founded Elephant Corridor Films to spotlight stories of human activities and the natural world.\u00a0<em>Colonies in Conflict\u00a0<\/em>was filmed over a two-year period and features science, biology and taxonomy experts.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cThis project took root during the pandemic,\u201d Mani said. \u201cIt was a rare opportunity to slow down and take in your surroundings, and that\u2019s when I became fascinated by this amazing species. My research, highlighting that the number of beehives in my own community had reduced to less than a quarter within seven years, made me realize that this is a local story with global consequences. We all have an obligation to do whatever we can to protect the environment, and I sincerely hope the film makes people aware how fragile our ecosystem is and that everything we do to nature, good or bad, has an impact.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Nikolas Huelbusch, Director Unscripted at ZDF Studios, added, \u201cRajani and her team have produced a powerful, enlightening documentary, one that we are very proud to represent. The story of the unique Rockbees, never captured on film before, and their fight for survival is one that audiences everywhere will find engaging and relatable.\u201d<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>ZDF Studios has taken on the global distribution rights, excluding India, to the award-winning biodiversity documentary Colonies in Conflict.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"author":290,"featured_media":19549,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"open","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"pmpro_default_level":0,"footnotes":""},"categories":[69],"tags":[7339,7348,7340,7341,6212],"class_list":["post-19548","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","","category-top-stories","tag-colonies-in-conflict","tag-elephant-corridor-films","tag-nikolas-huelbusch","tag-rajani-mani","tag-zdf-studios","pmpro-has-access"],"yoast_head":"<!-- This site is optimized with the Yoast SEO plugin v21.7 - https:\/\/yoast.com\/wordpress\/plugins\/seo\/ -->\n<title>ZDF Studios to Rep Biodiversity Doc - TVREAL<\/title>\n<meta name=\"robots\" content=\"index, follow, max-snippet:-1, max-image-preview:large, max-video-preview:-1\" \/>\n<link rel=\"canonical\" href=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/zdf-studios-to-rep-biodiversity-doc\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:locale\" content=\"en_US\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:type\" content=\"article\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:title\" content=\"ZDF Studios to Rep Biodiversity Doc - TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:description\" content=\"ZDF Studios has taken on the global distribution rights, excluding India, to the award-winning biodiversity documentary Colonies in Conflict.\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:url\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/zdf-studios-to-rep-biodiversity-doc\/\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:site_name\" content=\"TVREAL\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:published_time\" content=\"2023-04-17T07:34:21+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"article:modified_time\" content=\"2023-04-17T13:29:39+00:00\" \/>\n<meta property=\"og:image\" content=\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/12\/2017\/07\/colonies-conflict-ZDF-423.jpg\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:width\" content=\"600\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:height\" content=\"319\" \/>\n\t<meta property=\"og:image:type\" content=\"image\/jpeg\" \/>\n<meta name=\"author\" content=\"Mansha Daswani\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:card\" content=\"summary_large_image\" \/>\n<meta name=\"twitter:label1\" content=\"Written by\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data1\" content=\"Mansha Daswani\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:label2\" content=\"Est. reading time\" \/>\n\t<meta name=\"twitter:data2\" content=\"1 minute\" \/>\n<script type=\"application\/ld+json\" class=\"yoast-schema-graph\">{\"@context\":\"https:\/\/schema.org\",\"@graph\":[{\"@type\":\"WebPage\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/zdf-studios-to-rep-biodiversity-doc\/\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/zdf-studios-to-rep-biodiversity-doc\/\",\"name\":\"ZDF Studios to Rep Biodiversity Doc - TVREAL\",\"isPartOf\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\"},\"datePublished\":\"2023-04-17T07:34:21+00:00\",\"dateModified\":\"2023-04-17T13:29:39+00:00\",\"author\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/83da304c8bad8bfdb3edd7eb47cfe5ad\"},\"breadcrumb\":{\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/zdf-studios-to-rep-biodiversity-doc\/#breadcrumb\"},\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"ReadAction\",\"target\":[\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/zdf-studios-to-rep-biodiversity-doc\/\"]}]},{\"@type\":\"BreadcrumbList\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/zdf-studios-to-rep-biodiversity-doc\/#breadcrumb\",\"itemListElement\":[{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":1,\"name\":\"Home\",\"item\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\"},{\"@type\":\"ListItem\",\"position\":2,\"name\":\"ZDF Studios to Rep Biodiversity Doc\"}]},{\"@type\":\"WebSite\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#website\",\"url\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/\",\"name\":\"TVREAL\",\"description\":\"\",\"potentialAction\":[{\"@type\":\"SearchAction\",\"target\":{\"@type\":\"EntryPoint\",\"urlTemplate\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/?s={search_term_string}\"},\"query-input\":\"required name=search_term_string\"}],\"inLanguage\":\"en-US\"},{\"@type\":\"Person\",\"@id\":\"https:\/\/worldscreen.com\/tvreal\/#\/schema\/person\/83da304c8bad8bfdb3edd7eb47cfe5ad\",\"name\":\"Mansha Daswani\",\"description\":\"Mansha Daswani is the editor-in-chief and associate publisher of World Screen.
