It's Emma's World - Episode 47 - Producer and Actress Lakshmi Devy

Lakshmi Devy, doctor-turned-actor-turned-filmmaker who wrote, directed, and stars in “When The Music Changes” – an independent feature executive produced by Emmy Award winner John Turturro. The film has a following in India and is now making its U.S. debut on iTunes and YouTube. In light of the overturned Roe V. Wade, for every iTunes rental over the next three months, a portion of the feature’s profits will be donated to Planned Parenthood. “When The Music Changes” centers around a young beautiful Indian American woman (Lakshmi Devy) who finds happiness through her work as a documentarian and spending time with friends in her hometown in India. Trapped in an abusive relationship with her lover, albeit more emotionally than physically, she finds it difficult to accept that it is abuse. An unfortunate incident shakes her to the core, making her think about the relationship and finally take a call regarding her self-respect. The message is clear - every 16 minutes, a woman is raped in India.
