Summaries

"Ekjon Jhumur" (Jhumur, the Girl) is the story of a self-respectful, independent-minded young lady of today in her late twenties. Her consciousness of life, morality, and her own entity are intermingled with theater. The undaunted spirit places her above the nitty-gritty of daily life. She seeks emancipation through her medium of self-expression: the theater. The patriarchal society seems not to be tolerant with her sense of emancipation. It tries to delimit her within the conventional notion of womanhood. There's only women's fight against conventional society. A fight: Jhumur's own. Her ammunition--her challenge: the theater.—Anonymous
