Beauté grandeur nature est un film documentaire franco-béninois réalisé en 2005.

Synopsis

Dans divers pays africains, et particulièrement au Bénin, des centaines de femmes, de toutes les classes sociales, exhibent leurs corps avec fierté et élégance. Elles pèsent entre 80 et 110 kg et se moquent des critères de beauté conventionnels. On les appelle les « Filles Benz ». Elles ont servi de modèle et d’inspiration à une nouvelle génération de femmes africaines. L’élection de Miss Benz, filmée à Cotonou en 2004, fut l’occasion pour donner la parole à ces femmes, de montrer leurs inquiétudes, leur vie familiale et professionnelle.

In the film, Corbett, who is portrayed by Christopher Heyerdahl, is asked to kill a man-eating tiger who killed a young woman in Kumaon. Corbett arrives to Kumaon and meets with local people. The sister (Mishra Smriti) of the victim takes Corbett to the killing site. They together ambush the man-eater and Corbett kills the tiger from the machan. During this plot, the narration (by Corbett) contains stories of the history of India and the Kumaon region, as well as the efforts to save Indian tigers.

The area was originally considered worthless by European-Australian settlers, who fenced it off and abandoned it. The town was established around the start of the 20th century by German immigrant settlers. Its population increased after the first and second World Wars due to the government's policies of subsidies to encourage settlement by veterans. The people of Rainbow have struggled to eke out an existence for more than three generations, with global economics and government policy compounding the difficulties of marginal farming. The film draws from home movies from the 1940s to portray the people in this town.
