Description

1929 im ländlichen Punjab: Drei sehr junge Frauen werden in einer Zeremonie mit drei Brüdern verheiratet. Nachts trifft je eine ihren Ehemann in kompletter Dunkelheit, in der Hoffnung, einen Sohn zu zeugen. Tagsüber verrichten die Frauen ihre Pflichten, eingesperrt im Porzellanzimmer, in dem die Aussteuer ihrer Schwiegermutter Mai lagert. Als Mehar sich in einen der Brüder verliebt, wird eine gefährliche Leidenschaft entfacht, die mehr als ein Leben gefährdet.Siebzig Jahre später reist Mehars Urenkel aus England auf eine ­verlassene indische Farm. Dort findet er das verbarrikadierte Porzellanzimmer. Er wird sich mit seinen inneren Dämonen auseinandersetzen – und mit seiner verborgenen Familiengeschichte.
