The coronavirus pandemic has brought with it a deep division in people's opinions that threatens to grow more powerful with every passing day. If on the one side there are people, who despite lockdown fatigue, are still trying their best to practice all precautions and health guidelines, on the other hand, there are those who have chosen to deny the gravity of the situation. <br><br> The film introduces the viewer to both of these sides of the argument, put together entirely in the form of telephonic conversations which the actors perhaps shot from their own residential spaces. The narrative thus becomes educational in nature, reminding the audience of the pandemic that very much exists irrespective of our denial or acceptance.
