Synopsis
Social worker Mina tries to encourage her boss, the head of a reformatory, to offer more emotional support to the kids left in their care. However, when Medhi, one of the boys in her group, demands more attention, Mina finds herself backing away from her ideals. Medhi has lost his own mother and decides that Mina is the mother he is seeking, even going so far as to break into her home and eventually befriend her young daughter. On the one hand, Mina is glad she can help, but, on the other, is concerned that she will have to hurt Medhi when the time comes for him to be on his own.
