Jheeni Bini Chadariya (A Delicate Weave)

(62 min; 2017; dvd; English subtitles)

A Delicate Weave, set in Kachch, Gujarat traces four different musical journeys, all converging in the ways they affirm religious diversity, syncretism and love of the other. Drawing on the poetic and musical traditions of Sant Kabir and Shah Bhitai, as well as the folk traditions of the region, these remarkable musicians and singers bear testimony to how these oral traditions of compassion are being passed down from one generation to the next
