Five different relationship stories become connected during an ill-fated bus journey from eastern Nepal to the capital, Kathmandu.

Young Pooja lives with her mother in a village in Nepal. Though saddened by the death of her grandfather, she is secretly thrilled at the prospect of meeting the man she hopes may be her father — Chandra, a former Maoist guerrilla who is returning home after a decade-long civil conflict.

When two boys are kidnapped in a border town in Nepal, Detective Inspector Pooja is sent from Kathmandu to solve the case. But when she arrives, the brewing political unrest and violent protests throw her off course, and she is forced to seek help from Mamata, a local Madhesi policewoman. By putting aside systemic discrimination and pushing through everyday misogyny, the women solve the case - but at what personal cost?

Two outsiders – Maya, a Nepali immigrant working overnight to build a future, and Danny, an unhoused Black veteran searching for warmth and shelter – clash over one small space. Maya reaches for the law, then a gun, to belong.

Ram and Maya move thousands of miles from their home in Nepal in hopes of realizing their dream in New York City. As Ram works to finish his feature film, Maya receives a job offer that puts a strain on their relationship and calls into question what they are willing to sacrifice to maintain the lifestyle of international filmmakers.
