Set in the backdrop of the racial tensions of the sixties, In Service of His Master describes one man's dream to unite and build a place of worship for his community. After traveling to Britain, Dharam Singh Ragi strives to realize his dream of equal rights, for his community and family in a new country. Narrated by Dharam Singh's teenage son, Balbir Singh lifts the cover off of the little known history of how a flourishing Sikh community fought to establish themselves in Britain barely fifteen years after the independence of India and the partition of their homeland of Punjab into two. At the height of change, the Sikhs must learn to live as equals with those considered to be their masters little over a decade earlier. Now, in the season of change, the British must soon learn to accept the people from the colonies as equals.
