Mother Teresa & Me

Mother Teresa & Me

The film begins with Kavita, a young British woman played by Banita Sandhu, who faces personal struggles and travels to Calcutta to find clarity. There, she reconnects with her old nanny, played by Deepti Naval, who had cared for her during her childhood. This nanny, who was the first girl adopted by Mother Teresa back in the 1960s, shares her experiences, drawing the narrative back to that era. The story then shifts to a young Mother Teresa, portrayed by Jacqueline Fritschi-Cornaz, showcasing her dedicated work with the poor. Despite her external resolve, Mother Teresa experiences deep spiritual struggles and feelings of abandonment by Jesus, a lesser-known aspect of her life. These parallel stories highlight the personal journeys of faith, compassion, and self-discovery.
