Sixteen years have passed since Shalini last saw her daughter, Leila, alive. Her life has been irrevocably changed, marked by the loss of her husband, who was brutally beaten and dragged from their home the night Leila disappeared. Shalini, once a privileged woman, has been reduced to a state of disgrace. Desperate to find out where her daughter now lives, if she is even alive, she trawls the streets, her desperation palpable. In this repressive society, where tradition and purity are valued above all else, those living outside the city walls, forced to endure filth and oppressive heat, are considered less than nothing. However, Shalini holds onto the hope of finding a way back in, of reuniting with her daughter. Will she be able to overcome the obstacles that stand in her way and reunite with the one she loves most?
