Juliette
of the Herbs is a beautifully filmed lyrical portrait of the life and
work of Juliette de Bairacli Levy: world renowned herbalist, author, breeder
of Afghan hounds, friend of the Gypsies, traveller in search of herbal
wisdom and the pioneer of holistic veterinary medicine.
For more than 60 years Juliette had lived with the Gypsies, nomads and
peasants of the world, learning the healing arts from these people who
live close to nature. Juliette's well-loved and now classic herbals for
animals and for children have been a vital inspiration for the present
day herbal renaissance and holistic animal care community. Now in her
90's, Juliette's extraordinary life story is as colourful and as exciting
as her tremendous wealth of herbal knowledge.
Filmed on location with Juliette and her Afghan hound in Greece, Spain,
France, Portugal, Switzerland, England and America, interwoven with Juliette's
vast collection of archival photographs, together with scenes of Gypsies
dancing and Bedouins with their herds, Juliette of the Herbs
is an inspiring portrait of a remarkable healer.
Juliette has published many books on a wide variety of subjects
including, Traveler's Joy,
Cats Naturally, The
Complete Herbal for the Dog and Cat, Herbal
Handbook for Farm and Stable, Nature's
Children and Common Herbs
for Natural Health.
