During the British rule in India several British citizens married Indians and their off-springs resulted in the creation of a new race, Anglo-Indians. One such family that lives in Shorandu, near Goa, is that of Morris, a driver of the Indian Railways, his wife Margaret and their four children.

Highlighting the confining social norms of the time, Julie offers an emotional yet hard-hitting insight into the stigmas against inter-caste marriage and unwed motherhood in India. Rajesh Roshan’s musical score beautifully complements Lakshmi Narayan’s portrayal of coy Anglo-Indian girl Julie.
