The British division of colonial India into Pakistan and the Republic of India caused tremendous loss of life, and relocation of millions of people. After centuries of coexistence, Hindus, Sikhs and Muslims fell victim to mutual suspicion, as violence and murder swept through the countryside, and village populations changed overnight. In this film, ordinary people from Pakistan, India, and Bangladesh tell this tragic chapter in history, and recount their tumultuous experiences.
