"Woman: Shared Sensibilities, A Collective Voice for Equality"
A pair of enemy soldiers stationed on a remote border in a vast featureless desert descend into a state of profound disorientation after forgetting which side of the border is which. As they grapple with their identities, loyalties, and the absurdity of their situation, their isolation slowly gives way to an unfathomable nightmare that will blur the line between friend and foe.
ದೂರದ, ವಿಶಾಲವಾದ ನಿರ್ಲಕ್ಷಣ ಮರುಭೂಮಿಯ ಗಡಿಯೊಂದರಲ್ಲಿ ಕಾವಲಿಗಿರುವ ಇಬ್ಬರು ವೈರಿ ಸೈನಿಕರು, ತಾವು ಯಾವ ಕಡೆಯವರು ಎಂಬುದನ್ನೇ ಮರೆತು ತೀವ್ರ ಗೊಂದಲ ಮತ್ತು ದಿಕ್ಕುಗಾಣದ ಸ್ಥಿತಿಗೆ ಜಾರುತ್ತಾರೆ.
