Erschöpft von den Kriegsjahren, zieht sich die junge Krankenschwester Kit Smallwood auf die Farm ihrer Freundin Daisy bei Oxford zurück. Dort hilft sie ihr bei der Planung einer Hebammenschule in Indien. Selbst in das ferne Land zu gehen, daran hätte Kit nie gedacht – bis sie den jungen indischen Arzt Anto kennenlernt. Die beiden verlieben sich und heiraten gegen alle Widerstände ihrer Familien. An Antos Seite ist Kit glücklich – doch in Indien warten große Veränderungen auf sie. In einem traditionellen und sich doch stets wandelnden Land muss Kit entscheiden, wieviel sie bereit ist, für ihre große Liebe aufzugeben.
