This triggers a series of incidents which lead to a flash point in Jig's relationship with his wife but also stoke Ketaki's sympathy and passionate feelings for him. Will he now find the courage to throw off the shackles of his marital prison and escape to freedom ? Don Cavarcci weaves an erotic tale of desolation, lust, hope and redemption set in Madras (now Chennai) scenic East Coast Road beaches against the backdrop of the great Chennai flood of 2015 and the iconic Margazhi Mahotsav Carnatic Music festival.
