Beena is a rebellious young Indian-American woman whose family still clings to old school beliefs about gender roles and marriage for women. Though she pursues her dreams of freedom, her stern mother has other ideas, including arranging a marriage for her daughter. When Beena meets a man from Sweden, James Dean, she is immediately smitten by his European charm.
