In a world where love is filtered, scored and predicted, a couple in Pune, India, collides in a fierce, consuming romance. What begins in urgency and desire slowly fractures. Time intrudes.

The air is thinner. They are no longer who they were. Carrying different lives, different scars, they stand face to face with a past that never truly left them.
