Synopsis:

Monologues of migrant women are juxtaposed to tell the various immigrant experiences of women who find themselves in a foreign country away from their loved ones and as the sole means of providing for them. They speak out in a way to protest against their fate as women. This was a play presented on Zoom in July 2020 with actors and a creative team from seven cities and three continents, something that was possible only because it was presented on zoom during the pandemic lockdown.
