Sita is a goddess separated from her beloved Lord and husband Rama. [Director] Nina Paley is an animator whose husband moves to India, then dumps her by email. In SITA SINGS THE BLUS, three hilarious shadow puppets narrate both ancient tragedy and modern comedy in this beautifully animated interpretation of the Indian epic Ramayana. Set to the 1920’s jazz vocals of Annette Hanshaw, SITA truly is “the Greatest Break-Up Story Ever Told.”
