Amidst the patriarchal structures and cultural dogmas of Indian society, a teenage girl must navigate her way through the loss of a parent and discover her own path to adulthood in this poignant coming-of-age tale.
The unexpected demise of her mother turns teenager Kalyani's life upside down. As the relatives disperse, she and her father are left alone, struggling to cope with the void in their midst. In the weeks that follow, it is not just the grief she has to deal with, but also some harsh realisations about the patriarchal and hypocritical society around her. As events unfold, Kalyani finds herself becoming more and more disillusioned with the progressive, considerate father she used to idolise. The film portrays the girl's journey of coming to terms with her loss and finding a way forward.—One Pixel Revolution
