Some believe we all live with generational trauma. Some believe there is a cure for everything.

Natalie is “the perfect American wife”. Nitin treats her like a goddess. He thinks she makes aphrodite look like a turd but Natalie just wants “a normal f*cking marriage”.  

Dark-skinned Lata is a true Indian, an authentic female of the motherland with good grades, strong family values and a fertile womb. Her younger sister Layla is swimming through her own life in England as the well-spoken (verbose pr*ck), privileged (tw*t) and white-passing “favourite one” their parents adore her for. 

Sanjay’s Hinduness and expectations of his only son have merged into one. Recently turned eighteen Sameer couldn’t give less of a fuck, shit or damn. Are doctor Ayesha, her trusty assistant Aadesh and their brainchild of a clinic the answer these six are looking for? Or will PARTiTiONiNG make filthy and botched lab rats out of the lot of them?
