Directed by Australian rising talent Claire McCarthy, this poignant drama tells the story of an outwardly happy Australian couple who journey to India to collect their adopted baby.

Soon the intoxicating mystic power of the city pulls them in separate and unexpected directions and the vulnerability of their marriage begins to reveal itself.
