After a long exile, Rahul returns to his village in the Himalayas. His arrival causes commotion amongst the villagers, who have never forgiven him for his sins of the past. Rahul has to face the isolated world full of old prejudices, gender inequalities, and a system of caste-based injustices where women have no right to choose their own destiny.
The Serbian Master Goran Paskaljević –Someone Else's America (1995), Midwinter Night's Dream (2004), Honeymoons (2009), When Day Breaks (2012)– returns to San Sebastian, where he won the Festival's Life Achievement Award in 2010.
