Synopsis

Paresh earns his living by taking educational films to remote areas of India. Most of the free screenings he hosts are met with outright contempt. Despite the fact that he is working for what he and his government employers consider the public good, even his landlady considers him a shady character. Chapal, Paresh's temporary driver, wants to take off to Dubai in anticipation of a better life. En route to their first screening, they pick up Ameena, a pregnant woman who hopes to make it to her unnamed homeland to have her child. But the border is heavily guarded, she has no papers or money and the road is fraught with peril.
