Always right, never wrong, we praise Rama in this song.

be a cheerful loser ✨

The director gives a good perspective of how mythology can be perceived differently around the world. This movie is carefully crafted and exceptionally detailed and does not bode disrespect to any community.

Miles de diferencias contra un sentimiento en común.

You don’t have to sing the blues in Paradise, Sita! As in Nina Paley’s “Sita Sings the Blues”, we find that amazing, beautiful things can result when you mix together different influences. You can take some hand-made ancient glass beads, mix them with sparkling gemstones, toss in a few natural material beads and come out with something amazing. Or mix beads from Indonesia, Afghanistan and Arizona and have it all come together spectacularly. Give it a try! #Sita #sitasingstheblues #rama #ramayana #ninapaley #animated #getinspired #gethappy #inspiration #allovertheworld #silly #beads #gems #diy #customejewelry #animated #color #blues #mixedinfluences #fun #getcrafty #shop #nyc #unionsquare (at Beads of Paradise NYC)

Nina got permissions from YouTube to publish the full length version of Sita Sings the Blues without having to chopping it into smaller pieces after paying Sony/ATV over $50,000 for the rights to Annette Hanshaw’s music.

Nina was generous enough to Skype with me and answer a variety of questions about her work. The watermark makes this video very annoying to watch and I wasn’t willing to shell out the $$ for the full version of Camtasia, but she is very interesting to hear-- think of it as a podcast :)
