Synopsis
In a large mansion, several hundred kilometres from Calcutta, lives Bhagabati, the only inhabitant of the house and mother of four children. Once a year, to mark the Durga Puja Festival, the whole family comes together at the mansion, with their spouses and offspring. Joy is the son of eldest daughter Parul. He is also literally the observer: he walks round with his video camera. It soon becomes apparent that the varnish of family warmth is very thin. The youngest son Asit has money worries and the marriages of both the youngest daughter Keya and that of Parul are in difficulties. The tension only increases when cousin Shishir, the cause of Parul's marital crisis, appears on the scene as a potential buyer for the family house.
