Based on the renowned E.M. Forster novel, this expansive period drama centers on the changing dynamic between British colonials and native locals in India during the 1920s. When an outing to explore scenic caves ends in English tourist Adela Quested accusing Indian doctor Aziz Ahmed of rape, the incident results in a major court case, one that reinforces tensions between the British Empire and the growing movement towards Indian independence.
