Plot

Rwik and Sahana are journalists from Calcutta, who visit `Jhumura`, a fictitious village in Purulia to do a story on `Jhumur`, an almost dying folk art. The young duo meets an elderly couple, who are traditional Jhumur artists. Their conversation leads Rwik and Sahana to discover an unheard tale of love, hatred and compassion that commence with the tune of Jhumur and culminate in the serene locales of Purulia. This film is a lyrical saga that revolves around the life, love and struggles of Jhumur performers of Bengal.
