The Home and the World

1985 · 140 min

A sheltered woman looks back on how education and new freedoms pull her beyond the confines of her home in early-1900s Bengal. When a charismatic visitor draws her into a nationalist boycott movement, personal loyalties and political ideals collide, revealing tensions between tradition and modernity, rich and poor, and divided communities.
