Plot

An expat, who is not able to differentiate between the reality and illusion, needs to keep her immediate job.

We see the protagonist suffering from an OCD of washing her hands in the restroom of her workplace. Inspired by William Shakespeare's 'Lady Macbeth' who with guilt washes her hands over and over again trying to rid herself of the imaginary blood on her hands, where her mind plays tricks on her. Through the film, we see Kalki Koechlin having conversations with her boss, a credit-card consultant on the phone, her pet cat and her ailing mother. Kalki is brilliant with her performance in the Job as the film leads the way for generations to come.
