Sita Sings the Blues

This weekend I watched a movie called Sita Sings the Blues, directed by American artist Nina Paley. Illustrating her version of the ancient Indian epic Ramayana, which tells the story of the warrior prince Rama and his relationship with his wife Sita, who he rejects, breaking her heart. Combined with an autobiography of Paley relationship with husband, an animator transitions from their home in San Francisco to a town in western India. I love this movie because it was narrated as both an ancient tragedy and modern comedy. The movie was a beautifully animated interpretation of the Indian story of Ramayana. I was inspired by the main character Sita and decided to create an illustration based on her.
