Film Description:
This short dance film is about the abandoned Nyra, who walks between different worlds and connects with women who teach her about strength, frailty, and hope within her fragmented mind to fight back home to Dyavaprthivi.
Nyra is a fictional character devised off myths and mythological stories and ideas about Goddess Saraswati existing in Indian culture, prominently in Hindu religion. The experimental dance film explores fantastical storytelling through Mudra vocabulary in Indian Classical dance form of Bharatnatyam.
