André Malraux was a French
adventurer, award-winning author, statesman and known for his interest in
archaeology. He came to India after his father's death and traveled extensively
through Indochina and China. He was on friendly terms with Pt. Jawaharlal
Nehru. Indians will recall that during India's ordeal André Malraux made a
public declaration stating that he was willing to go and fight for Bangladesh.
Three thousand Frenchmen, among whom senior officers, then immediately proposed
to follow his example. The film narrates the life of André Malraux and his
relation with India through interviews, images of old archaeological items and
other old footage.
