After a baby is kidnapped at a rural train station, two brothers become embroiled in the investigation.
In the dead of night, a mysterious passerby steals an infant from the arms of her mother, Jhumpa. A witness, Raman, offers his assistance, but his wealthy cynical brother insists otherwise. Pressure from the authorities drive the trio onto a journey through unknown hinterlands, while fending off a growing mob who mistakes the brothers for the abductors.
Their perilous expedition uncovers personal histories while bringing to light a series of corruption plaguing the region. Humanity and modernity are pitted against each other in this dramatic tale of overturned truths and morals, with the trio confronting fanaticism, classism and violence in search of lost innocence.
