beautiful performance



This is my latest glimpse of beauty: Seema Biswas, playing the character Shakuntala, a devote and faithful Hindu widow living in the poverty of an ashram in late 1930s India in the Deepa Mehta film, "Water." This beautiful character is strong, emotional, deep, compassionate, and seems to be continually searching and growing. What a joy to get to know this character through this film.

Sarala Kariyawasam also gave a fantastic portrayal of her character, a child widow, Chuyia.
