    Synopsis:
    Gaja Gamini - born out of black brick wall of Pandharput.

    The wall a metaphor, so also Gaja Gamini. The wall that does not stand alone, the wall that does not divide but brings togrther two spaces... two ages... These same elements are mirrored in Gaja Gamini. As she moves forward and leaves the wall behind, she manifests herself in four different characters - Sangeeta, Shakuntal, Monica & Mona Lisa.

    The film is an operatic ballet, punctured with colors & music. The entire film oscillates between illusion and reality. It is the journey of a woman called Gaja Gamini - who is suspended in time and space along with a spectrum of characters taken out from art, history, music & poetry. A journey through the eyes of a painter. These characters who voice the asthetics of feminine beauty, act as points of reference & are in constant dialogue with each other on the essence & identity of a WOMAN - GAJA GAMINI.
