Beneath The Surface Lies A Burning Secret
Banned in India, Fire is the first film to confront lesbianism in a culture adamantly denying such a love could ever exist.
Shabana Azmi shines as Radha Kapur in this taboo-breaking portrayal of contemporary India and the hidden desires that threaten to defy traditional expectations.
In a barren, arranged marriage to an amateur swami who seeks enlightenment through celibacy, Radha's life takes an irresistible turn when her beautiful young sister-in law (Nandita Das as Sita) seeks to free herself from the confines of her own loveless marriage and into the supple embrace of Radha.
