SYNOPSIS : Bengali women from time immemorial performed various magico-religious rituals to appease and influence their Gods to grant them their wishes. These rituals involved finger painted designs drawn on clay floors and walls. These women, often powerless members of society, used this art form to convey their hopes and wants to their Gods and display their artistic talents. This practice has almost totally faded from use today and details about this art form is very hard to come by. This film is an attempt to preserve and showcase this rich cultural heritage.
