The film has an urgent appeal as its core intention - one of understanding different perspectives, and the extent of harm their distortion can bring about. It begins with two friends sitting on a beach, watching dogs fight among themselves. However, the lighthearted, cheery atmosphere soon takes a dark turn as conflict wriggles its way between the friends as well.

The film wants to exercise and stretch its limbs in the space of metaphors to talk about the rigidity of fixed perspectives that threaten the peace and harmony of the country in the name of religion. It demands of the viewer to not force everything within the monolithic identity of black and white, and allow the subtleties of greys a chance as well in a nation that has been ravaged by intense communal violence, especially in the recent past.
