Nina Paley’s brilliant — and troubled — animated short “Sita Sings the Blues” will air on PBS. This is the critically acclaimed short film that blends Hindu traditional stories with jazz-era music, whose distribution has been stopped by an unforeseen copyright claim on some of the 1920s music that is integral to the film.
