Om, a young man, is driven by unemployment to sell his body parts for cash. Guards arrive to make his home into a germ-free zone. When his brother Jeetu arrives unexpectedly, he is taken away as the organ donor. Om's wife Jaya is left alone. Will she too be seduced into selling her body for use by the rich Westerners? A satire on the effects of globalization, where poverty drives those with nothing to eat, to sell their organs.
