Movie of the Week
"The Viceroys House" which is an historical drama about the partition of India.

It should be noted that the British, through the United Nations, used the same model in creating (and evolving over the decades) Israel, Jordan, and what we know today as the West Bank and Gaza out of the Palestinian Territories.
