「印度小姐」選美比賽的美麗參賽者，以及激進教派訓練營中接受軍事化教育的其他年輕女孩有什麼不同？看似極端對立的兩種女性，在印度社會快速現代化的當下，不論是積極擁抱西方資本主義價值觀，或是堅守傳統宗教規範，其實懷抱的都是同一種寄望……。

Moving between two extremes—the intimate verité drama of the Miss India pageant's rigorous beauty boot camp and the intense regime of a militant Hindu fundamentalist camp for young girls—The World Before Her delivers a provocative portrait of India and its current cultural conflicts during a key transitional era in the country's modern history.
