Someone is looking for an ambulance, someone is searching for medicine like crazy, yet someone is using an ambulance for their own purpose. When Tonu, a mid-aged woman is fighting to survive inside an ambulance, right then a young boy is running at midnight at the city and trying his best to get medicine. The whole system teaches us to sacrifice at all levels, which makes our life a low-budget short film, where we dream a lot and can execute very little!
