Newborns

Laxmi Agarwal a human rights activist and a survivor of acid violence gazes back at us as we contemplate together the meaning of memory and loss What does it mean to survivors of acid violence What does it mean to people in their environment How do the two worldviews interact What do concepts of fear power innocence and beauty mean to us The Newborns attempts to provide a lens to the survivors of acid violence to look forward and gaze back They take us through the ennui of their domestic and public spaces in a nameless dystopian city its factories houses and motels and its promises never honored
