Description:
Inspired from four poems – ‘horizon’, ‘refugee’, ‘the Tibetan in Mumbai’ and ‘exile house of Tenzin Sundu’, the play ‘Kora’ is about the fear and insecurity of Tibetan refugees living in India and Nepal as stateless. These refugees live in hopes to get back to their motherland where they belong. They are unable to adjust into the new place due to cultural differences and language barriers. They miss their home everyday while they find ways to survive at their new place. How difficult it is for refugees to belong, is the question at the core of this play.
