Krish and Meera are a young Indian couple, climbing the ladder of the corporate rat race. Stressed, frustrated and unable to come to terms with the sacrifice required for success, they go in search of a mystical butterfly. Last seen by the unknown Portuguese explorer Carodiguez in a remote valley in Goa, the butterfly possesses a magical aura, granting great happiness to the person who catches it. In the journey that takes them from the smog-filled, concrete jungle of Mumbai through the coastal landscapes of western India, to Goa, the couple lose more than what they want to rediscover. Debut feature filmmaker Sarthak Dasgupta's film deals with inquiries into simple truths and meanings of human existence.
