Set inside a prison, this Malayalam drama centers on a condemned man who awaits punishment for the killing of four people, including two young girls, yet remains strangely calm about his fate. As officials and a grieving father seek to understand his lack of remorse, the narrative shifts into his past, tracing a hard childhood, a mentorship that turned him into a painter, and a relationship with a young woman whose family's desperate circumstances set tragic events in motion. The film builds toward revealing why he committed the crimes he is accused of.
