This explicit political situation sparks off the film, acting as a counterpoint to an analysis of the self. The film involves two urban youths, Ritu and Raja. They don't know of each other's existence. The film constructs various layers of relationships between 'the two'. In the process, possibilities of stories emerge connecting the two through many thought provoking revelations. Ritu is a 24-year-old beautiful woman from a city of Bengal who has been tossed between broken relationships and failed attempts to communicate to a primarily masculine society. It has lead to her assumption that relationships never work. She is desperate to tell her own story to the world. Raja is a Kashmiri boy of 26 wants to associate him with the Indian mainstream. He is feminine, handsome, shy and hopelessly romantic. He remembers the death of his brother, brutally killed by the Indian security personnel. He possesses a nostalgic video tape showing his family gathering around the tattered dead body. This makes him crave for his own greater social identity as a Kashmiri.
