Synopsis
The year is 2022, and Bombay's poor have much the same fate as they now do, except that in this stark future ruled by multi-national conglomerates there is a market for young men's body parts to replace those of an ageing Western generation. Om is a young man out of work. He gets an opportunity of a lifetime, or so he thinks, when he accepts a 'position' as an organ donor with the Interplanta company. All material benefits are offered in return. Much to his wife's horror he accepts the offer and the family's life is transformed by the trappings of fantastical modern technology. Everything is blissful until the day for organ donation comes up and in a mix-up Om's gigolo brother is dragged away instead.
