In a city in undivided Punjab, Nathu, a tanner, is bribed to kill a pig. When the animal's carcass is discovered on the steps of the local mosque the next morning, simmering tensions explode into riots and massacre. A seemingly well-planned and executed job by the British plants seeds of mistrust and hatred among those who, until the day before, had been close friends and neighbors.
