An old couple refuses to perform the last rites of their only son at the last minute and is determined to look for him, after their son’s best friend, who disappeared along with him, returns home after 15 years.

to me, this film stands true to what it actually is about, hope, and ends with the same note. So i loved it so much. Performance so beautiful that dialogues seem to flow naturally, like they would in our reality, which is exactly what i went expecting from Khagendra Lamichhane film. I still do feel like some rough edges could have been polished better, but that doesn't take away the fact that it's a film worth your time. After a long while, a film stayed with me even after i left the hall, and gave me something to think about. When they say "love Nepali films", this is the kind of film they mean.
