Twenty-year-old Jillian Wu leaves Calcutta to marry a man she has never met - Peter Chou, also a Hakka - with much anticipation, only to discover that he is gay. Forced by her husband to keep up the charade of a normal marriage, and pressured by her in-laws to have a child, she flees back to Calcutta, only to be disowned by her conservative family. A moving story with politcal overtones, set during a period of changing times and changing values.
