Overview
When an underground musician’s unconventional romance with her beloved pillow is violently cut short by her mother, she spirals into a delirious odyssey through Mumbai, where her friendships, desires, and grip on reality are tested by an enigmatic homeless poet. As she searches for love and connection in an increasingly alienating city, the abandoned pillow begins to develop a will of its own.
