After a power struggle at her university, math professor Nela
Sambashivan returns to her native India to think. She is drawn,
instead, into the lives of ten year old Ranu, the cunning
motel-keeper who exploits her, and an unscrupulous Uncle who
believes that everything is for sale. Nela's transformation from
abstract thinker to selfless guardian begins when she and her lover
rescue Ranu from a forced marriage, but only when the child
unexpectedly fails to thrive does Nela confront her miscalculations
about sacrifice, survival, and the mysterious alchemy of love.
