Sita Sings the Blues - now online, and TONIGHT on WNET-13!

Remember my totally-off-topic post a couple of weeks ago, where I posted 4 little clips of an animated retelling of the Ramayana, using Annette Henshaw songs, from the film Sita Sings the Blues, by cartoonist Nina Paley?

Well, anyone in the area served by New York's Public TV station WNET-13 can watch it there TONIGHT at 7! It's also being streamed online on www.thirteen.org, or you can download it from a number of sites which are hosting versions. Lots of links on the Sita site!

Enjoy! I went to a screening last weekend at the NY International Children's Film Festival. Lots of fun, and listening to the children asking their parents all sorts of "Why" questions as they came out of the theater was quite entertaining, too!
