An endearing Marathi folktale about two sisters. Ekkesvali has one hair on her head; Dhonkesvali has two and thinks she's great. What happens to them when they meet an old woman who lives alone in a clearing right in the middle of the forest…? This folktale takes on a special joyousness with Ranjan De's stylised representations, full of interesting details.
