Two young monks facing sacrifice, a cockerel made of dough, and Karna and Ravana as tragic heroes. What Hampana’s explanations helped me understand.

The longest letter I ever wrote, and the most honest.

Great screens and small, affordable theatres. My hope for more people in India to enjoy going to the cinema.
