The Great Unknown

1950s Calcutta. Seventeen-year-old Shankar becomes a clerk to the last English barrister in the Calcutta High Court and thus begins their unusual and unforgettable relationship. The Great Unknown is the moving story of the many people Shankar meets in the courtrooms and lawyers' chambers of Old Post Office Street-some seeking justice, others watching the drama of life unfold. It offers a uniquely personal glimpse into their world of unfulfilled dreams and unexpected tragedy, as well as hope and exhilaration.
