Bhagole and Prabhata, landless farmers, try in vain to find work in the city but return home to a village in disarray following the tiger-induced death of a local farmer. The dispute over compensation becomes heated, fueled by suicide suspicions. Rejected for work from the local brick factory, the elderly couple relies on their son, Saharsh, who secures a job with the daunting task of producing 1,000 bricks daily for the ends to meet. Amidst struggles, occasional moments of beauty offer solace, including a village play depicting Lord Vishnu's arrival, a signal of hope. After an incident at the Brick Factory threatens the family's survival, Bhagole, driven by desperation, decides to sacrifice himself to secure his family's future. Prabhata, unwavering, joins him, and the forest, which holds 40 years of shared memories, transforms into a surreal stage for their poignant final night together.
