The film explores the mental time and space of one character, a girl, who lives in a lane in a suburb of a city (Mumbai). As she keeps watching through her window, her father remains lost in his fading world and the lives of different characters in the lane unfold and are suspended in this passage of time. In the background, Rakesh Sharma, the first Indian astronaut takes off into space. A big elephant is going to come into the narrow lane, and everyone awaits this happening through the film. Dreams are, in a way, a refuge. The desires and dreams of characters in this film intersect as the hopes of a fading society and the space under the window becomes that space of dream and of nightmare.
