Chakra is a story of the shanties and slums that dot every mega city naywhere in the world. A story of the search for shelter, security, and small pleasures of life. Following the life of Amma, a feisty sexually active widow who labors to eke out existence for herself and her teenage son Benwa, the story in anecdotal fashion examines the peculiar social and moral setup of this tribe where survival for the next day justifies all means to obtain it.
