Synopsis
On a lonely night, 12 year old Jahaan is approached by something strangely familiar in her Himalayan village. As the visits become more frequent, the new companion gradually reveals its identity. Running games in the wild playgrounds and the trivial gossip in the shadow of the holy tree suddenly feel distant as the days start blurring: is the world around Jahaan disappearing?
