Danilo Parra's film about Kalaparusha (posted ten days ago on the Guardian website) has created quite some stir on the web - and rightly so!
I'm at a loss of words about this... just go watch the film yourself. And as a little footnote, read on here (and watch the beautiful film-stills).
Heartbreaking indeed!
In 2003, Fred Jung has conducted a short interview, which can be found on AAJ.
