Amidst the quiet, deserted streets of pandemic Paris, a refugee from Bangladesh finds himself alone in his apartment with a tiny rat. He names her Fulkumari and forms an imaginary pact with her, reminiscent of the Arabian Nights. Telling her a story each day, the refugee unravels the layers of his past. Tales of revolution, famine, and civil war intertwine with the poetry, philosophy, and myths of an entire culture; precious moments of family intimacy come alive in flavours, smells, and sounds. As the bond between the two strengthens, each story becomes a thread in a tapestry of meaning, bravely reaffirming a world on the verge of falling apart.
