A skeleton is found at the home of Esther (Nandita Das), whose fisherman husband Arulappasamy (Vishnu) has been missing for the past 25 years. Esther confesses that it was she who murdered her husband but when Agnes (Varsha), the cop assigned to the case, lends a sympathetic ear, she narrates a heart wrenching tale of a loving family ruined by the politics of territorial waters.
