Deep in the forest Rama and Sita live in exile. Eyes watch their every move, and the universe shimmers with illusion.

As Rama lies helpless on the battlefield, it's time for Sita's little known story to unfold. Storyteller Emily Hennessey and virtuoso sitar player Sheema Mukherjee conjure up a vivid, wild and beguiling world in this retelling of a much-loved Indian epic.
