In the dry, sun‑baked outskirts of South Karnataka, a remote town clings to the rhythms of labor and land. The region is a patchwork of endless fields, aging temples, and a tightly knit community where newcomers are rarely welcomed without suspicion. From the mist‑laden hills of Wayanad, a migrant worker arrives seeking the promise of steady work, only to find himself caught in the unspoken codes that bind the town’s residents to a harsh and unyielding order.

Thommy steps into this world as a quiet, capable presence, quickly becoming the right hand of the powerful landowner, Bhaskara Pattelar. Pattelar’s reputation looms large—his authority is absolute, his temper unpredictable, and his expectations relentless. With a demeanor that blends paternal beneficence and iron‑fisted control, the master‑servant relationship that forms between them is as much about survival as it is about coercion. Thommy navigates each day with a careful balance, offering obedience while quietly measuring the cost of his compliance against a deeper, unspoken sense of right and wrong.

The film settles into a brooding, atmospheric tone, letting the landscape and its simmering tensions speak louder than any dialogue. Shadows stretch across the fields at dusk, hinting at secrets that the town refuses to acknowledge. Within this charged environment, Thommy finds himself constantly pulled between loyalty to his benefactor and a growing awareness of the moral fissures widening around him. The daily grind becomes a subtle battlefield where personal conviction and external pressure clash, leaving the audience to wonder just how far a man can bend before his own conscience forces a reckoning.
