The Garland (1981)
Directed by Horace Ové
Overview
“These Indian films. They’re done to a formula - songs, dance, routines and a lot of sentimental heavy breathing.” When her 17-year-old son Roy falls in love with a Muslim girl, and a Bangladeshi butcher seeks help from her husband Raji, Leela realises that the tears and romance of Indian cinema are closer to her own life than she has ever imagined.
