Storyline
Sonu is trapped between his family's endless demands and his own overwhelming sadness. As he struggles day by day to rebuild his broken life, he desperately searches for meaning, purpose, and even just a simple reason to keep going forward. This is a powerful and deeply moving story about a young man learning to break free from what holds him back and discovering who he truly wants to become, even when everything in his world feels completely hopeless and meaningless.
“A man's search for meaning as his world crumbles.”
