In the cast-off capital of Panipat in North India, the history of fabric is closely woven with that of its immigrants. A young textile worker recounts the city’s modern history, which was formerly known for the battles that altered the course of the history of South Asia. A Winter’s Elegy traces the memory of clothes and the desires of its makers.
