The movie shows the filmmaker on a journey to India, exploring her own Indian roots by following the career of acclaimed Bollywood actress Helen Richardson Khan . The movie received the jury award of the Munich documentary film festival in 2000 as well as the Prix de La Semaine Critique at the Locarno International Film Festival the same year.
