The narrative follows a young Kashmiri Hindu college student raised by his grandfather in exile, who remains unaware of the tragic events leading to his parents' deaths. After his grandfather passes away, the student, who had previously accepted a sanitized version of the exodus during his college years, embarks on a quest to uncover the truth about his family’s history.
