The Laugh of Lakshmi

Description

Forced apart by the Sri Lankan civil war, a celebrated Bharatanatyam dancer sends her 11-year-old protege son to safety in Sydney and stays to search for her missing husband and daughter. Worlds apart for twenty-five years, she among farming collectives and displaced families, and he in corporate Australia, with a secret love, reclaim what matters—that true strength lies in vulnerability and compassion.
