A joyous, colorful occasion, a wedding day in the Punjab region in 1947; the patchwork of two families eager with anticipation for their pending unification. In PARTS OF PARTS & STITCHES, Yamuna and Jiwan prepare for their lives and future together in a small village of what is soon to become Pakistan. Soon after the couple celebrates their matrimony, the reality of the political and religious upheaval—forced on the country by Britain's abandonment—
becomes apparent. The violence of man against man, Hindus and Muslims against each other, erupts in a horrific
massacre. With perseverance and a will to survive, Yamuna desperately attempts to stitch back the pieces of her life.
Featuring Sarah Baskin, Purva Bedi, Jaspal Binning, Sergei Burbank, Mariam Habib, Ashok Kumar, Bushra Laskar,
Deanna McGovern, Antonio Miniño, Eric Percival, Anil Ramani, Shetal Shah, Imran W. Sheikh, and Dathan B. Williams.
With George Allison (Set Design), Karen Ann Ledger (Costume Design), Carl Faber (Lighting Design), Martha Goode
(Sound Design), Arooj Aftab (Composer & Singer), Gisela Fullá-Silvestre (Composer); Navdeep Tucker (Choreography),
and production stage manager Sarah E. Ford. Produced by Martha Goode with associate producer Jessica Thornhill.
