Sita sings the Blues

Accro du thé watched the film, Sita sings the Blues by Nina Paley and is very impressed.

The film is, believe it or not, an animated, blues version of the Indian epic tale of Ramayana, this time with Sita as the main character. As an Indian who grew up watching the Ramayana on television depicted with great seriousness and drama, it was refreshing to see this perspective of the Ramayana. It was initially strange and later rather endearing (and cute!) to see Sita singing the Blues and crying over Rama in husky, lovelorn jazz vocals.
