Sister Mine

When Amarjeet’s fellow villagers find out that his sister, Manni, has married a scheduled caste man, he and his parents face being ostracised. For Amarjeet’s father, the solution is absolute: his daughter must die, and Amarjeet must be the one to carry out the murder.

Under immense pressure, a reluctant Amarjeet is sent to Melbourne, where he is welcomed with open arms by an oblivious Manni and her husband, Sunny. In the days that follow, he pleads with his sister to consider leaving her husband, and then with his father to relent; but when these appeals fail, he is seemingly left with no way out.
