Synopsis

Bhimtal, in the Western Himalaya, has more species of butterfly than most countries in Europe. It was to this lepidopteran paradise that Peter Smetacek s father moved his family so they could all pursue their passion for butterflies. The foremost among his siblings to inherit the family obsession, Peter caught his first butterfly at the age of three. After this, there was no looking back, and today Peter oversees the largest private collection of butterflies and moths in India.
