With an underlying sense of hope that remains invincible no matter how difficult circumstances get, the short film conjures an endearing narrative. It takes the viewer into the life of a woman during the coronavirus lockdown, the portrayal supplemented with a soulful song. As is true of everyone, she finds herself filling her days with chores and other feeble attempts at keeping oneself engaged and moving forward. <br><br> However, there is another layer to the narrative for the unsuspecting viewer - one which is about celebrating the heroism of the innumerable health workers and doctors globally, in general, and in India, in particular. Thus, the film concludes as an homage to the people who continue to wage this battle at the forefront, even at the cost of compromising their own safety and health.

On the face of it, the film is a homage to mothers all over, but look closer and the story goes beyond the traditional definition of motherhood. The same is achieved by portraying the familial experiences of a young woman as she moves across the various stages of life, those that include both tears and happiness, thereby allowing the viewer a more balanced product about one's relationship with their parents.
