Description: Jeff Atman, a journalist, is in Venice to cover the opening of the Venice Art Biennale. He's not expecting to meet the spellbinding Laura, who will completely transform his few days in the city. Another city, another assignment: amid the crowds, ghats and chaos of India's holiest Hindu city, a different kind of transformation lies in wait.
