Synopsis
In 1989 Tamil Nadu, Mariyappan, a polio-affected shepherd, learns from his neighbor Chandran that his mother has died. Urged to return and settle a debt with Kaathavarayan, he asks his landlord for help, but is refused and given his goat Pechi instead. With no choice, Mariyappan sets off. Denied entry to his village due to caste, he continues his journey through the scorching sun and desert. The film captures his struggle and the events unfolding at home.
