Filmed in only two weeks in the surroundings of Galle Fort in Sri Lanka, the film tells the true story of a girl who decided to act like a man. Resentful of the privileges men have in contemporary society, she begins to behave and to dress as though she belonged to the male sex. In the measure in which her dreams begin to crumble, her life is on the way to tragedy. The director had trouble with the censorship in Sri Lanka with demands for cuts in the film.
