Beautiful, provocative and unforgettable, Before The Rains traces the lives of three individuals as they navigate a complex web of passion, love and ambition. Henry Moores (Linus Roache, TV's Law & Order) is a British spice planter who falls in love with his Indian housemaid Sajani (Nandita Das). After his wife (Tony Award winner Jennifer Ehle) returns home from a journey abroad, Henry pressures his idealistic right-hand man, T.K. (Rahul Rose) to silence the increasingly defiant Sajani. Soon, alliances are forged and lives forever changed by hopes for the future and loyalties to the past. Before The Rains eloquently reveals the fragile divide between love and lust, order and chaos, honesty and deceit.
