Synopsis

Maya lives with her husband, Sundar, and their son, Debu, in a Kolkata suburb. She works multiple jobs to support the family, while Sundar, an ex-soldier with Post-traumatic stress disorder, faces ridicule. Debu cares for his father, torn between love and embarrassment. Maya's family offers no support, disapproving of her marriage. Despite her urging, Sundar refuses to work. One night, he disappears and becomes a murder suspect. When he returns days later, terrified and hungry, the family faces its greatest test.
