It soon becomes evident that their search for a home is also their ongoing search for a place in this society that wants to keep them away in a section that can not be the center. They have a friend in Sharukh, but many of their other interactions don\u2019t turn out as expected. Laila is torn between being true to herself and preserving links with the family she was born into. Meanwhile, Roshni treads a fine line between concealing her identity and living the life she wants, but it is not without its dangers. As the search for a home continues, we realize it transcends physical spaces and biological bonds. New friendships blossom, and help comes from unexpected quarters.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The film was a part of NFDC Film Bazaar&#8217;s Work in Progress (WIP) Lab, 2021.
