Synopsis

Sara starts a new life in Delhi with partner Abhi, but their happiness is disrupted when Abhi spends her family's money on his art exhibition. As outsiders in a hostile city, they find solace in friends Simon and Gopika, who are also navigating their own struggles. Simon sacrificed his love for a home, while Gopika lost her spiritual haven. Together, they face the challenges of homelessness, identity, and love in a city that seems indifferent to their struggles.

 

The Director will be present for a post screening discussion.
