India, 1947. In a rural village in Bengal live three sisters, daughters of a well-respected doctor. Theirs is a home of love and safety, a refuge from the violent events taking shape in the nation. Then their father is killed during a riot, and even their neighbours turn against them. When the partition of India is officially decided, the sisters find themselves separated from one another, each on different paths. The sisters are caught in events beyond their control, their unbreakable bond, and their incredible struggle against powerful odds.
