Years after the death of his wife, the father meets a woman and the two fall in love with each other, and the heart of the old man finds a new meaning in the last phase of his life. However, his sons stand strictly against the relation, because the marriage of the father at such an age is considered a taboo in the society and not a common phenomenon of the society.
