Synopsis
Local policeman Ronald Merrick suspects Hari Kumar ofbeing a subversive. Kumar is educated, well bred, arrogant and unable to speak his native Hindi. The stunning adaptation of Paul Scott's four novels, known as The Raj Quartet, set in the turbulent years leading up to India's independence. The British Empire is beginning to crumble as more and more people express their discontent at British rule in India. Local policeman Ronald Merrick suspects Hari Kumar ofbeing a subversive. Kumar is educated, well bred, arrogant and unable to speak his native Hindi: in short, he is everything that Merrick fears and despises. The two men also clash on a deeper level since they have both set their sights on the same woman: Daphne Manners. When violence erupts locally, Merrick calls to check Daphne is safe but she has not returned home..
