''The World Unseen'' is a novel written by Shamim Sarif in 2008. The movie with the same title made its debut before, more specifically in 2007 at the Toronto International Film Festival, and its script was actually used in order to add the final touches to the novel. The film featured Sheetal Sheth and Lisa Ray as the protagonists. The actresses have collaborated with the award-winning author also for another motion picture, which was the adaptation of Shamim's I can't think straight novel. ==Plot Summary== In 1950’s South Africa, free-spirited Amina has broken all the rules of her own conventional Indian community, and the new apartheid-led government, by running a cafe with Jacob her “coloured” business partner. When she meets Miriam, a young wife and mother, their unexpected attraction pushes Miriam to question the rules that bind her. When Amina helps Miriam’s sister-in-law to hide from the police, a chain of events is set in motion that changes both women forever. The World Unseen transports us to a vibrant, colourful world, a world that divides white from black and women from men, but one that might just allow an unexpected love to survive. 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「The World Unseen (book)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
