A Passage to India (Rama Rau)
by E. M. Forster, Santha Rama Rau

In this greatly successful dramatization of Forster's famous novel, we are introduced to the irreconciliable ideas of eastern and western cultures, to the mysteries of man, and to their pitiless dramatic conclusion.

The English professor is a true friend to the people of India and especially to a young Indian doctor, who is passionately proud of his people and ever so anxious to make friends with the English.

One day he takes a group of visitors on a picnic and to a cave, from which every utterance, "filth or poetry, truth or falsehood" has the same echo; "it erases the moral differences in anything man utters."

- New York World-Telegram & Sun .

A prim English girl, engaged to a magistrate, comes screaming back from the cave, accusing the Indian doctor of having molested her.

Immediately the latent arrogance of the English rises in wrath at a trial, at which the doctor is defended by the English professor and finally exonerated.

But the deed has been done, the division is complete, and nothing can mend the ruptures of the heart.
