A German artist\u2019s journey to 18th-century India unravels love, betrayal, and identity as he loses his wife to colonial exploitation and is haunted by family ties across continents.\nIn 1769, Carl von Imhoff, a W\u00FCrttemberg veteran of the Seven Year War and an accomplished miniature painter, embarks on a transformative journey from Plymouth to Kolkata in the service of the East India Company. This voyage quickly takes a tragic turn when Carl loses his wife to the looming shadow of exploitation in India. Branded as sold, his wife\u2019s fate shatters Carl\u2019s world, leading him into a life of fatalism as he finds refuge among the Muses of the Weimar court. Yet, Carl\u2019s ties to India run deep; he cannot escape the memories of his ex-wife, son, and grandson, haunting him across continents.
