The film balances itself on the backs of several worlds. From an element of surrealism and sci-fi to action and a heist story, from intimacy to sensuality, it includes different aspects to present its reality to the viewer. Music remains an integral component of this landscape, that is further coupled with animation to bring the vision to life.

The film starts off with a bank robbery but soon traverses into realms very different from what the viewer might have expected at first glance. All of this remains a conscious choice as the film explores intimacy, both sexual and platonic, friendship and love. It is further tied with bigger questions about existence and survival, and what it means to co-exist in harmony as a society.

The myriad elements are beaded together in the narrative which, though sometimes runs the danger of becoming slightly loose, eventually sees itself home. The journey it completes is an endeavor of colors, emotions and an earnest desire to delineate all of its intentions.
