Sinopse
Características

Based on true events and discovered memoirs, Where Destiny Commands is a love story set against the flaming backdrop of World War II. History is in the making; and nowhere more so than in the Middle East where events of the day will continue to spread down the years, creating allies and enemies, old and new, who will fight each other over their beliefs of religion and the rights to homeland. These searing events will change and divide the peoples of this world for decades to come.It is 1940 and a young Indian doctor joins the Indian Medical Service in the British Indian Army. The war takes him from his home town of Calcutta (known now as Kolkata) in India to the ancient cities of Iraq, Syria and Persia. With his Battalion, The Prince of Wales’s Own 2/4 Gurkha Rifles, he proceeds through the erupting Middle East to Cairo and the deserts of North Africa. Serendipity plays its hand in Cairo, a tumultuous city of political intrigue and espionage seething with Allied forces from all over the world. There he meets a young woman who has fled the Armenian genocide in Turkey to find safe haven in Egypt. The capture of his Battalion on a fateful day in June 1942 by Erwin Rommel’s Afrika Korps in the chaotic Battle of the Cauldron, and his incarceration in a POW camp cannot deter their destiny. Despite separation and the global turmoil surrounding them, the story of their love transcends the tragedies of war, the boundaries of far flung countries and the barriers of time and fate.
