Where did you watch this movie?

Embedded with deep emotion and thought-provoking introspection, this socially relevant tale delves into the trials and triumphs in the life of Sethumadhavan, a hard-working man. After his wife's demise, he finds himself all alone in the world, especially after his only son and his family emigrate to a foreign country without him. With nothing much to do, the old man takes a fifteen-hour drive to an old bungalow in the high ranges, where he had spent his childhood and adolescent years, studying in the British school nearby. While walking through the nostalgic steps, ignoring the hardships of his age, Sethumadhavan also reminisces about Paru, his schoolmate with whom he had spent some important stages of his life. Deciding to try and meet her, Sethumadhavan collects details about Paru from the locals, but is finally disheartened to hear about the sad fate that embraced her. Totally shattered, the old man then decides to take a different route, which may instill the lost happiness to his life. The loneliness that he experiences in his life, on account of the death of his wife and also on account of his son being far away, in a foreign land, makes him seek refuge in the memories of the past.
