Documentary | Hindi | 22 mins

Daastaan-e-Rafoo: Stories in Stitches tells the story of Rafooghar-a community space in one of the most marginalised neighbourhoods in New Delhi and the women who gather here every Sunday – to rest, stitch their stories and reflect on their needs and desires, away from the demands of home and family.
The film delves into the transformative and therapeutic power of stitching, showing how this seemingly simple act is slowly reshaping their lives.
