Indian dance artist Menaka PP Bora performs a sattriya at the National Portrait Gallery. The dance form originated in 15th-century Assam and tells stories through movement and portrait-like poses. Menaka adds a contemporary slant by taking gender and identity as her theme and using elements of film and speech.
