The Health-education Film "Snakebite" is a blend of action-packed drama, interesting information and stunning snake photography that enthralls and educates. Superstitions and ignorance continue to kill thousands of victims of snakebite and unfortunately, life-saving Anti-Snake Venom Serum remains virtually unknown and unavailable in rural India.

The lore, the mystery, the facts and the demystification of snakes and snakebites have all been captured in "Snakebite". The message is that the best protection is knowledge.

The film has won several prestigious awards:

  • The "Best Professional" film award at the Ninth International Film Festival held in U.S.A. in 1986:
  • The British Medical Association Film Competition Gold Award in 1987;
  • The Cine Golden Eagle Award by the Council on International Non-theatrical Events, 1987
  • Special Award of the Young Peoples Jury at M.I.P. (Medikanale International Parma, 1989
