The colourful and joyous festival of Durga Puja (Durgotsava) is one of the largest religious festivals in India, in honour of the goddess Durga. While the goddess of protection, motherhood and war is celebrated, millions of Indian women live another reality, much less revered. DURGA is a haunting visual poem that examines the contradiction between the spiritual worship of femininity and the brutality of domestic violence.
