Lovebirds: Rebel Lovers in India plot

Falling in love with someone from a different caste or religion in India runs great risks. Rejection from the family or honor killings are just two of the possible consequences for lovers who, contrary to tradition, want to stay together. This film follows a number of rebellious couples who have run away from home - often from small villages in the countryside. They are taken care of in a shabby shelter in New Delhi, where Mr. Sachdev takes care of the lovebirds and wholeheartedly supports their rebellion.
