Norwegian academic Samuel breathed his last in a Santhali village, expressing his wish to be buried in the village. Bidu is driven by the desire to respect Samuel's final wish. Meanwhile, Bidu's young son grapples with the heartbreaking reality that his dream of visiting Norway, promised by Samuel, may remain unfulfilled. However, a glimmer of hope emerges with the arrival of Samuel's daughter, Lauren, in the village, breathing new life into the boy's shattered dreams.
