Pinguli is an old village on the Konkan coast, about 32 km north of Goa. Here, a unique Thakur community of sixty families has preserved for hundreds of years three different folk forms: Chitrakathi, marionettes and leather puppets. Chitrakathi arose in temples, from the Paithan paintings of mythological figures and the desankritised epics in vibrant Marathi, following Sant Dyaneshwar and the non-Brahmin saints of the Bhakti movement. This film traces the evolution of Chitrakathi, a folk form available in the Konkan area of Maharashtra, while revealing the transformation being brought about by the modern life.
