Synopsis
When his father is imprisoned, and his brother migrates, Rakib (18) is left alone to housekeep a mansion of Purna (62), a retired general. Purna returns to run in the mayoral election, giving Rakib a new purpose—to help with the campaign. In exchange, Purna teaches Rakib confidence. Rakib and Purna become mutually dependent. One day, Purna’s campaign poster is vandalized. Purna takes this as a personal offence, so Rakib roams around to find Agus, the perpetrator. Rakib threatens Agus in an effort to make him apologise and brings him to Purna. After Purna beats Agus to death, Rakib is racked with guilt. He tries to escape, but Purna hints he will kill him if he ever does so. The only way for Rakib to save himself is to murder Purna.
