Object Description
| Title | Ramayana – The Kidnapping of Sita |
| Creator | Simon Fraser University Museum of Archaeology & Ethnology |
| English Description | The kidnapping of Sita portion of the Ramayana is reported in a Hitchcock-style docu-news format. The reporter asks us how we would act when faced with a moral dilemma, 'Was Sita right in trying to help who she thought was just a poor man in need of assistance. She only wanted to give him a bowl of food. I am sure without knowing the outcome like we do now, we’d never be able to decide if it was the right decision. It happens to the best of us, an impossible situation, where no matter what you choose, a right and a wrong is being done. Maybe you can think of a time when this happened to you. What was the consequence of your choice?' |
