Season 1 · Episode 2

Sunday, March 30, 2025 • Duration 12:08

The Room of Many Colours, appears to be a first-person narrative from the perspective of a young boy living in India with his father and nanny, Ayah.

Through the boy's experiences, the narrative touches upon themes of childhood curiosity, family dynamics, cultural differences, and the looming presence of World War II as the father prepares to join the Royal Air Force and the boy anticipates a move to his grandmother's home.
