First-time feature filmmaker Rehana Mirza explores the lives of three generations of South Asian women afflicted with mental illness in this heartfelt drama. Divya Shah (Madhur Jaffrey) suffers from bipolar disorder, though for years she's managed to keep her condition a closely guarded secret from her family and friends. Meanwhile, Divya's disobedient daughter, Linny (Pooja Kumar), ran away from home before she was married, and gave birth to a daughter, Jia (Madelaine Massey), out of wedlock. Now Jia is 16, and the strength required to keep her condition a secret is beginning to take a heavy emotional toll on the mentally ill adolescent.
