The World Unseen

In this moving and passionate love story set in 1950s South Africa, apartheid is just beginning. Free-spirited Amina (Sheetal Sheth) has broken all the rules of her own conventionatl Indian community, and the new apartheid-led government, by running a café with Jacob, her 'colored' business partner.

When she meets Miriam (Lisa Ray), a young traditional wife and mother, their unexpected attraction pushes Miriam to question the rules that bind her. As Amina helps Miriam's sister-in-law to hide from the police, a chain of events is set in motion that changes both women forever.
