Love as an antidote to despair

Vish is a young man struggling with an existential despair and a self-destructive, grieving girl who is turning into an alcoholic. Finding his way back to Suli, his estranged childhood love, he begins their passionate, loving encounters, marred by the geographical distance between them. After a long separation, when he finally returns to her, their attempt to rekindle their love takes tumultuous, confusing, conflicted turns. This story peers into the black well of despair, the fickle nature of desire, the turmoil of love, the resonance of dreams, and an indignant descent into the dark corners of the mind.
