Ninety-year-old Chachan lives in Pala, a small town in Kerala, India, known for its rubber economy and strong Catholic Church presence. His daily routine includes tending to his farm and cows, attending church, and watching television. Conversations with his grandson, a film student from Kolkata, reveal Chachan's reflections on his life as a farmer, the connection between human fortunes and the rubber crop, and the patterns of local and national politics. The film employs a non-linear, observational style inspired by Jonas Mekas.
