The village of Islampura hasn't seen rain in five years and water has never been so scarce. Both Mother nature and the Government ignore the pleas of the villagers. Islampura is populated by Hindus and Muslims. The lack of water causes serious concern in the village and the exacerbation of religious conflicts that have never completely subsided. While adults remain prisoners of their prejudices and superstitions, children of the village, who are not interested in religious or cultural differences, show great maturity. Collaborating all together, they devise a plan to find some water. Will they succeed in bringing life back to the village?
