Two friends, Rahman and Saleem, grow up in a small Indian town. Rahman’s is an ordinary life, of friendship, of work at a roadside mechanic’s shop and Mohini, a first love. His world is also that of Abhujaan, Saleem’s father, who treasures and teaches law as an ideal and who belongs to an era of ethics and principles.Rahman pursues his dreams in the unquestioning belief that he lives in a society that does not define or limit him by religion. This certainty is shattered unexpectedly one day by the arbitrary use of law. He sees his simple path through life blocked by the misuse of power by politicians.
