Nina Paley Director

Sita Sings the Blues is an animated, copyright-free retelling of the Ramayana. It juxtaposes the story of the director's breakup with her husband, a discussion of the Ramayana by three shadow puppets and Sita singing about her own story through the songs of Annette Hanshaw.

Quote: Dasharatha

Goodbye, dear boy. You are noble and good. The embodiment of righteousness. A brave warrior prince. Joy of Heaven and Earth. The ideal man. May the Gods be with you.

Kaikeyi

Don't let the door hit your ass on the way out.
