Synopsis

Coming of age. Venkatesh is 18, illiterate; he cleans hotel rooms in Panjim, Goa, and sells plastic bags on the street with his 10-year-old partner, Jhangir, an enterprising orphan.

He's fascinated by the swimming pool on a vacant estate, and when the owner shows up from Bombay with his teen daughter, Venkatesh watches them from a tree and follows the girl when she's out.

He and Jhangir start a friendship with her. The father and daughter are at odds, hardly speaking; tragedy is in their past.

Venkatesh helps the father in the garden; short, odd conversations evolve into a gruff offering of a job and schooling in Bombay.

What will Venkatesh do with this opportunity?
