- Description: Sumi on the day of Holi in a moment of extreme inebriation. Alcohol coaxes to the surface the intense helplessness that besets her young life. Having chosen a life of prostitution she would like to believe herself mistress of her destiny though in reality she is a slave to those inclinations in her sexuality that render her terribly vulnerable to economic, emotional and physical exploitation. Her surface wildness cannot sufficiently choke the intrinsic bewilderment that torments her and makes her fall prey to insomnia. Hunted by desires she barely understands, she is haunted by her inability to come to terms with them. Kolkata, India, March 14, 2006.
