About this movie

After a tragic incident, two-year-old Pihu is trapped in an apartment all by herself. She has very little food and water, as she's also cut off from the world outside. Under such dire circumstances, Pihu has to survive and her day-long ordeal forms the crux of the story. Pihu chronicles the trials and tribulations of a 2-year-old girl child, who is caught in the crossfire of her parents' tumultuous relationship. It ultimately puts her in a hellish situation that carries on for an entire day. Pihu is a metaphor meant to bring to light two glaring realities of the society we live in – the impact domestic violence/dysfunctional relationships can have on children and how people in a big city don't really care about those beyond their kith and kin.
