British woman Edna (Judy Davis) travels to India with her future mother-in-law, Mrs. Moore. The trip is not only to visit Edna's fiance, Lonnie, who is a magistrate in India, but also to expand her horizons. Edna's mind is not on the communication activities between white people, but more eager to understand the exotic customs of India, so she gets to know the local doctor Ace, who is full of pure admiration for the British, although she is occasionally disappointed, but He still marveled at Mrs. Moore's grace, often embarrassing himself by helping white men out of sieges. In order to satisfy Edna's wish, the kind Ace acted as a guide to lead Edna and Mrs. Moore to visit the Malabar cave in the suburbs. Unexpectedly, the two ladies felt very uncomfortable in the cave, and Edna ran out with all the scars on her body. The trip caused an uproar. The British believed that Ace wanted to do something wrong with Edna and imprisoned her. Ace's fate is now in Edna's hands.
