In this finely-crafted short, Govinda, a California doctor, is forced to return to his native India when his estranged father falls ill. Much to the frustration of his atheist son, the father refuses medical treatment, claiming that only God can heal him. As the tension between them grows, Govinda is drawn back into the mystery surrounding the death of his beloved wife. (2006, 21 min.)
