- Synopsis
- Nia, 25, stands on a mountaintop on a winter morning wishing away the worst trauma of her young life - an illicit abortion. Visiting her family summer retreat in the Himalayas from the city, alone; she’s depressed, desolate and detached.
  The caretaker of the house departs on an errand, leaving his mother-in-law Bhemi, 70, in charge along with his son Sunny, 8.
  Interaction is unavoidable...
  A weathered mountain woman, Bhemi’s days are filled with labour, but her sense of humour doesn’t disguise the years of wisdom she offers; while Sunny’s endless mischief force Nia back into a childhood that she had long forgotten.
  As a stark, stunning winter sets in, these 3 souls find themselves bound together beyond age and class divides. Even as Nia starts to smile again, the demons of her past keep catching up on her, throwing her back into the trauma she is trying so hard to escape.
  Nia faces the ultimate test of love, pain and forgiveness as she struggles to heal and give her life a ‘Second Chance’.
