In the remote Himalayan village of Kandar, a midwife faces a life-threatening childbirth with no medical recourse. Her only hope lies in finding a wild herb known to heal such cases. The lone person who can identify this herb is an elderly grandmother, living with her teenage granddaughter. So as the three women journey in search - across lands scarred by hydropower projects, they uncover the erosion of both ecology and memory. When an old Kinnauri folksong becomes their guide, tradition and technology converge to revive a fading language, a disappearing landscape, and deep kinship between their people and the earth.
