In the Light of Sri Aurobindo_Plays and Savitri in Auroville
For the past two decades, Aryamani and her team have staged Sri Aurobindo’s plays and Savitri in Auroville. This film documents the inner journey of individuals to understand and experience Sri Aurobindo through art, especially theatre. It documents the the journey of these plays over the last 20 years along with the inner transformation of individuals who have participated in these plays.
This is an endeavour to document the outer and inner processes involved in creating these expressions of Sri Aurobindo. we hope it can eventually help and inspire others in the discovery of such unique material that Sri Aurobindo offers to us.
