THE WORLD UNSEEN
UK, 2007, 94 Mins
Dir: Shamim Sarif
In 1950's South Africa, apartheid is just beginning. Free-spirited
Amina (Sheetal Sheth) has broken all the rules of her own conventional
Indian community, and the new apartheid-led government, by running a
cafe with Jacob her Black business partner. When she meets Miriam
(Lisa Ray), a young traditional wife and mother, their unexpected
attraction pushes Miriam to question the rules that bind her. When
Amina helps Miriam's sister-in-law to hide from the police, a chain of
events is set in motion that changes both women. From overcoming
oppression to finding personal freedom, from the hardships of a
loveless marriage to the hesitant joy of an unexpected love affair,
The World Unseen transports the viewer to a vibrant, colourful world
that is universal in its themes. For more information, please visit:
