The protagonist lives with a hearing disability, until one day when he stumbles across a hearing aid by the roadside. Experiencing the auditory wonders of the world for the first time, his glee is uncontainable, as is also portrayed by the actor's ear-to-ear smile.

Shot on a smartphone, the film offers calm visuals, supported by different voices, all of which exhibit the same elemental tonal quietness. The thought behind the story, on the other, aims to touch upon more complex aspects of life and existence. Through its engagement with several voices, the film presents its intrinsic concern - an interaction with doubts, insecurities and the course life chooses to take. All of these thoughts are mapped against the scene of a sky with fast moving clouds, while the canvas of the sky itself remains unchanged. The film puts forth several ideas, but it does not provide a single narrative for the viewer to tie them up with, leaving the interpretation of its true intentions up to the audience.
