In the Himalayan Mountain range, a rural village loses its inhabitants to the city’s allure while an elderly couple, Padam Singh and Tulsi, live in desolate isolation. Their days are filled with routine and occasional humour as they mask their loneliness. Their son’s absence gnaws at them, and when a letter arrives promising his return, it reignites their hearts with joy and anticipation. However, the reunion does not unfold as expected, shattering their hopes. As the film climaxes, the spectator is confronted with a more rueful plight, deeply engaging the audience’s empathy.

The power in a small rural Nepalese village with a strong maternal tradition revolves around Chinmaya. The entire village is busy preparing for wedding of her son when the groom's ex-lover, Suntali, shows up with a mean-looking man. Chinmaya is annoyed that the village men are intrigued by the beautiful Suntali, who has returned to take revenge on Chinmaya for banishing her from the village in the past. Chinmaya suspects Suntali's vengeful intentions, which the younger woman slowly puts into practice, and devices a scheme to get rid of her.
