Dixit portrays dance instructor Dia, who lives in New York City. She fled there as a young woman to marry an American-- a decision that forced her parents to leave their traditional Indian town in shame. Now, still estranged from her family and raising an adolescent daughter on her own, Dia is called back to her home town when she finds out an old mentor is near death. Upon her return she is devastated by the dilapidated state of the outdoor theater where she and many of her peers proudly performed, showcasing the art and culture of their heritage. Compelled to set things right and preserve the exhilarating haven of her youth, she must face the townspeople she abandoned and mend the hearts she broke before she can convince them to join her in salvaging the once-cherished theater.
