Details

Follow the journey of a Mother whose main concern is the quality of her soup until she tries to protect her son from imprisonment by distributing his illegal protest leaflets for him. Gradually, she gets embroiled in the fight for equality and fairness, and becomes the strong-willed figurehead for the war against the corrupt ruling classes.
