The film will be competing at the festival for the prestigious Tiger Competition.

The trailer introduces us to a teenage girl who is studying in school, but her ambition is to get a boyfriend. We see her going through the course of a normal girl and facing as many problems as much as any other woman would go through. She begins to talk to a new boy, and they get to understand each other. She is obviously shamed, as we see she enjoying her life as per her norms. The film ends with a mother and daughter talking about the latter being taught how to use a dating app.
