SYNOPSIS
In a small desert village of Kutch, Gujarat, rain finally arrives after years of drought and gives birth to a new lake. 10 year old Mukti is fascinated by this revelation and now wishes to swim in the lake once. However, unlike the other kids, he has some unexplained expectations and is restricted to go for a swim. Disappointed, but motivated to swim, this seemingly simple wish takes Mukti on a startling journey of
discoveries about his sexuality, which causes him to question himself, the stigma around it, and importantly his innocent wish to swim. Will he still be able to swim?
