Tonight, I am watching the Indian film Water with Mags. I'm sure it will be wonderful.
It takes place in Colonial India, 1938, and focuses on an 8 year old girl who is widowed and sent to live with other Hindu widows.
Hopefully I'll be able to share some thoughts on it later tonight or tomorrow.

"...the month in which I learned the most in all my life. Alone as I was, I learned the knowledge of silence, of loneliness, of harsh and severe poverty, the interior conversation with 'the guest of the soul' who had never shown himself to be more 'sweet' than then."--Father Pedro Arrupe, SJ

Impossible yoga position but she likes to have goals that no one else can imagine, so they'll shut up about how they understand exactly what she's going through

OMG! I loved water. Lizzie and I saw it when it was in the theater; very lucky timing given the number of flicks we see in theaters every year.
I think I may need to rent it and see it again.

It was fabulous, even though a bit sad at times. But what a powerful story!
Here's my comments from when we saw Water and Beauty Academy of Kabul in the same week. Click the link to see recommendatons for other Indian films left by a couple of commenters.
Water was an amazing film.
