Story
Vivid and compelling, The Henna Artist opens a door into a world that is at once lush and fascinating, stark and cruel. Escaping from an abusive marriage, seventeen-year-old Lakshmi makes her way alone to the vibrant 1950s pink city of Jaipur. There she becomes the most highly requested henna artist—and confidante—to the wealthy women of the upper class. But trusted with the secrets of the wealthy, she can never reveal her own. Years later, she is confronted by her husband who has tracked her down.

At 20, he has just met a young woman named Nimmi when he leaves to apprentice at the Facilities Office of the Jaipur Royal Palace. Their latest project: a state-of-the-art cinema.

Story
When renowned painter Mira Novak arrives at Wadia hospital in Bombay after a miscarriage, she's expected to make a quick recovery, and Sona is excited to spend time with the worldly woman who shares her half-Indian identity, even if that's where their similarities end. Sona is enraptured by Mira's stories of her travels and shocked by accounts of the many lovers she's left scattered through Europe. Over the course of a week, Mira befriends Sona, seeing in her something bigger than the small life she's living with her mother.

Story
"Mes motifs étaient plus élaborés, racontaient les histoires de celles que je servais. Plus le henné était sombre, plus une femme était aimée de son mari - c'était du moins ce qu'elles croyaient. Au fil du temps, mes habituées en étaient venues à croire que mes tatouages avaient certains pouvoirs." Fuyant un mariage abusif, Lakshmi, dix-sept ans, quitte son village rural des années 1950 pour se rendre dans la ville rose et animée de Jaïpur. Là, elle devient la tatoueuse au henné - et la confidente - la plus demandée des femmes de la haute société.
