RUPA

Rupa, a 38-year-old homeless woman, sleeps only metres away from burning bodies.

15-years-ago Rupa's husband died in a car accident months after leaving her for another woman. They had an extensive home and a young daughter — Rupa chose to leave the material world behind for a simple existence at Pashupatinath where she has been ever since.
