Tell us about your project. What language will it be in?
In 1961 Goa, amidst strife between Goans striving for independence and the supporters of the Portuguese rule, beautiful Lady Appleby, trapped in an unhappy and childless marriage with a Portuguese diplomat, begins a passionate affair with Sanjib, a young Goan active in the independence movement. They are followed by a Portuguese doctor who becomes obsessed with Lady Appleby, spying on the couple and feeding voyeuristically off their passion. When Lady Appleby discovers she’s pregnant she faces an agonising choice: she’s always wanted a child but keeping the baby would destroy her marriage. She asks the doctor for an illegal abortion, but he refuses, revealing his obsession with her. Terrified, she returns to Panjim.

One thing is for sure – we’re dealing with a powerful and original story, which comes from “Mysteries of Lisbon’s” writer, Carlos Saboga. Here’s a synopsis part:
