The coming of age of a young girl Radha in 1980s middle class India. Surrounded by books and music, Radha has little contact with Sundar, a boy who helps her lead a life of privilege. Sundar runs away and when she meets him years later, Radha considers that he may be more free than she is. In her 30s, in modern India, she thinks of Sundar and seeks him out.—Pooja Kaul
