Navarasa weaves an Indian transgender tale
Navarasa weaves an Indian transgender tale Transwomen in India believe they are the reincarnation of Lord Krishna, even if others won't even consider them to be human beings. Film director Santosh Sivan has put his award-winning skills and vision into "Navarasa" (Nine Emotions) to see the "third gender" become accepted, a combined feature/documentary with "real transvestites" in leading roles. In the film, a little girl (Best Child Actress National Award winner Swetha) discovers Uncle Gautum's secret life - man by day, woman by night. When he runs away to get married at the Koovagam festival, she sets out to save him.�[Date: 21-Jul-05 ]
