A temple city in lush southern India, Madurai is bustling with pilgrims and steeped in history and tradition. Yet not all traditions should be upheld...
1992. As a low-caste cleaner for a wealthy family, Janani''s duty has always been quiet obedience. Even at home, her mother-in-law''s word is law. Janani has never dared to dream of a different life. But now, she has something she''ll do anything to protect... even if it means losing everything she''s ever known.
2019. Nila doesn''t remember her life before they moved to Australia, and her parents never talk about their past. So when she joins her parents on a trip to their hometown, Madurai, she hopes she''ll finally uncover the truth. Especially as Nila seeks acceptance for a secret of her own...
For both Janani and Nila, love isn''t simple.
Sometimes love is an act of courage...
