Sita Sings the Blues, CC license

Sita Sings the BluesNina Paley wrote on her site,
“Conventional wisdom urges me to demand payment for every use of the film, but then how would people without money get to see it? How widely would the film be disseminated if it were limited by permission and fees? Control offers a false sense of security. The only real security I have is trusting you, trusting culture, and trusting freedom.”

Sita Sings the Blues is an animation which attempts to interpret an event in Ramayana, a Sanskrit epic. In it, the different form of ideal human, like ideal king, servant, lover etc, is portrayed.
