     9A spectacular part-fictional documentary on 
     10India’s famous Odissi dance, seen via its 
     11foremost living exponent, Guru Kelucharan 
     12Mahapatra. The film shows how living 
     13traditions and modes of social initiation can 
     14turn into classical forms. Described by the 
     15director as a film ‘about hunger’, it returns the 
     16dance to both the labour that it celebrates and 
     17the improvisations that continue to defy 
     18codification and control. Many of the dances, 
     19including the spectacular Navarasa sequence 
     20at the end, were choreographed specially for 
     21the cinema.
