Water

不久前看了一部 DVD。那是一部以印度文化为背景的印度戏，名为 WATER。
很喜欢以纪录片形式排的电影。娱乐之余也可了解人文。戏里描述了印度重男轻女的封建思想，及对女性的不公平待遇。因而遭到多方面的反对拍摄。

读一本书如走万里路，看一部戏如游百国家。

SYNOPSIS
Set in 1938 Colonial India, against Mahatma Gandhi's rise to power, the story begins when eight-year-old Chuyia is widowed and sent to a home where Hindu widows must live in penitence. Chuyia’s feisty presence affects the lives of the other residents, including a young widow, who falls for a Gandhian idealist.

请支持这部电影。应为它是经过了多少坎坷的路才拍成的。
有兴趣可以查阅到Deepa Mehta 其他作品，如 Fire 及 Earth。
