A 14-year-old schoolboy from Kashmir becomes an innocent pawn in a treacherous game between militants, the army, peace-broker politicians, and religious leaders after discovering a handgun on his way home from school. Sent to live with his aunt and uncle after militants killed his parents when he was just four years old, Sikandar Raza's primary goals are to make his foster parents proud and keep his soccer game sharp. Then, one day, while walking home from a soccer game with his friend Nasreen, Sikandar finds a gun. Despite Nasreen's gentle attempts to dissuade her friend from picking up the weapon, Sikandar decides to take the gun home, and the darker side of his nature gradually begins to emerge. Later, when people around the city begin getting killed, it starts to become apparent that the young schoolboy has become hopelessly ensnared in a twisted game being played by the people in power.
