TRISHNA A film by Michael Winterbottom, Drama, R, 117 min, in English
"Nobody can take an audience on a journey like Michael Wintebottom and this film is no exception." -E. Nina Roth, Huffington Post
Transplanting the well-loved tragic romance of Thomas Hardy's classic novel Tess of the D'Urbervilles to India, Michael Winterbottom (A Mighty Heart)trains his masterful lens towards one of the brightest young stars of a generation,Freida Pinto (Slumdog Millionaire). Pinto soars in her most revealing performance yet--the eldest daughter or a poor family in Rajasthan, India. She works in a nearby resort to help pay the bills. Jay (Riz Ahmed, Four Lions) is the wealthy son of a property developer who takes up managing the resort at his father's request. When he meets Trishna at a dance, their fates become intertwined. Jay finds every opportunity to win Trishna's affection and she accepts his efforts with shy curiosity. But when the two move to Mumbai and become a couple, Jay's deep family bond threatens the young lovers' bliss.
