Based on a realistic happening, this tale narrates the troubles of a Parsi couple searching for their youthful son who went lost from the time when the riots broke out in Gujarat in 2002. They could well be searching for humankind. Cyrus Peethawala, a projectionist at an Ahmedabad pictures hall, his wife Shernaz and their kids - son Parzan and a daughter Dilshad - live in the walled part of the town.

The small joys of the middle-class family unit fade away on Feb 28, 2002, when many parts of Gujarat, including Ahmedabad, saw the starting of yet one more round of sectarian strife - triggered this time by the blazing of a train coach in Godhra a day before. Chief Minister of Gujrat warns that perpetrators will not go without penalty. The televised message sends an

indication to attackers related with a rightwing Hindu association to take "vengeance" on the marginal Muslim population. A crowd goes on a run riot in the building where the Peethawalas reside with their Muslim as well as Hindu neighbours. Although the mother and daughter are saved, the father, returning from job, learns that Parzan is lost.Living in a relief camp for a while earlier than taking protection at a position rented by an American friend, the family begins the hunt for the little child.
At the exact moment, it goes further than the particulars of the condition and highlights the worldwide aspects of the account - loss of individual principles in the face of sectarian brutality all over the world.
