Musical animation telling the story contained in the Ramayana with American songs from the 20s. Rama is banished to a forest. He lives there with his wife Sita. Sita is kidnapped by another man. Rama rescues her but has doubts about whether she had sex with her kidnapper. She is submitted to "trial by fire". She passes. Rama's exile ends. Rama is the new king. Sita, now pregnant, is a suspect in the eyes of the people, so Rama decides to repudiate her and banish her to the forest. When Rama's twin sons are adolescents he encounters them and takes them with him. As for Sita, he proposes a new trial, but Sita commits suicide instead.
A frivolous pop rendering of an ancient myth.
