Yogyakarta – Video II – Ramayana Ballet

The second video from the Ballet performance. Here we find Rama victorious after defeating Ravana, being reunited with Sita. However, in a surprise twist of fate, he renounces Sita, stating that she is no longer pure. Heartbroken, Sita proceeds to set herself on fire to prove her purity. Obviously the God of Fire knows of her truth, and spares her life – thus proving to Rama her honesty.
