Plot
Fire is a brilliant film. In an extended household, Radha and Sita are sisters-in-law who both share unhappy marriages. They fall in love, and challenge traditions in a culture that has no word for Lesbianism. Fire is a film about desire, passion, tradition and change, east and west. The acting is remarkable, and the story line compelling. Dramatic cinematography helps draw you into this engrossing movie.
