Somi and her husband Sukhram met and fell in love while fighting in the Naxalite commando, the Maoist guerrilla that has been fighting since the 1960s for the rights of the tribal communities of India. A few years ago, they deserted the movement and surrendered in front of the police. They live in a settlement they built with other former comrades, but their social status as surrendered Naxalites is compromising the future of their two children. They want to give their children the best education possible, but that comes with high risks. The film shows their attempt to escape this dead-end while exploring their controversial past.
