9.1 A Fine Balance "Darkness on the Edge of Town"

Dramatisation of Rohinton Mistry's acclaimed novel about India's underclass.  Two tailors - uncle and nephew, Ishvar and Om - come to the city to escape from the caste violence in their native village. They are employed by a Parsi woman, Dina Dalal who runs a sweatshop from her apartment and is struggling to preserve her independence. She has a lodger too, a reluctant student, Maneck, from the mountains.  As their initial suspicion of each other turns to friendship and then love, their lives take dramatic and often shocking turns against a backdrop of India in crisis, during “the Emergency” of the mid-1970s, a period marked by huge political unrest and human rights violations.  A comedy, a tragedy, a story of the triumph of the human spirit under inhuman conditions.
