It's 1974 Bombay - India is on the threshold of a wave of progress initiated by Prime Minister Indira Gandhi. In Bandra, a small Christian suburb of Bombay, 'development' manifests in a land feud between two brothers. Edwin's decades old resentment of his older brother Vincent reaches a crisis point when he discovers that Vincent is about to cut a tree, on ancestral family land. Complex layers of love, loss and meaning unfold in their Bandra home, as Edwin - with a little help from his sister-in-law Mena - does his best to save the tree.
