Girl Song by Vasudha Joshi

A look at the life of Anjum Katyal, a blues singer, drawing on her poems and songs. In her interactions with her mother and her daughter, we see how a cultural identity proudly woven from many strands is increasingly under threat from narrow and exclusionist definitions.
