In Hyderabad in 1948, a love triangle evolves between three young people with conflicting ideals: an Australian schoolteacher, an Indian nationalist and an Indian nationalist revolutionary. The turbulent events of this phase of the struggle for Indian independence come alive and take their toll half a century later in Sydney, 2001 - the year of 'Tampa' in Australia. 'The Last Candles of the Night' is a lyrical and moving tale of the pitfalls of memory and the costs of deep allegiance.
