Sita Sings the Blues
Written, directed, produced and animated by American artist Nina Paley Sita Sings the Blues is an animated movie where Sita is a goddess separated from her beloved Lord and husband Rama. Three hilarious shadow puppets narrate both ancient tragedy and modern comedy in this beautifully animated interpretation of the Ramayana. Set to the 1920’s jazz vocals of torch singer Annette Hanshaw, Sita Sings the Blues earns its tagline as “the Greatest Break-Up Story Ever Told.”

What is?
PeerTube aspires to be a decentralized and free/libre alternative to video broadcasting services.
Our aim is not to replace them, but rather to simultaneously offer something else, with different values.
A federation of interconnected hosting services
PeerTube is not meant to become a huge platform that would centralize videos from all around the world.
Rather, it is a network of inter-connected small videos hosters.
You can still watch from your account videos hosted by other instances though if the administrator of your instance had previously connected it with other instances.
This is just how a federation works!
ActivityPub, a federating protocol that allows you to interact with other software, provided they also use this protocol. For example, PeerTube and Mastodon -a Twitter alternative- are connected: you can follow a PeerTube user from Mastodon (the latest videos from the PeerTube account you follow will appear in your feed), and even comment on a PeerTube-hosted video directly from your Mastodon’s account.“> And there’s more!
