About this event
Ayesha, a Muslim house-help, reluctantly takes on a one-day job at a Hindu household. She wants to be upfront about her identity, but when she introduces herself, the owner of the house mishears her name to be ‘Asha,’ a common Hindu name. With each minute spent in the house, Ayesha learns just how the "other side" perceives you, when they think you're one of them.
